DUI/DWI clients that are involved in drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities are generally there on their own accord, but most of the time in drug and alcohol rehab due to a mandatory court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, specifically first-time offenders could possibly be required to go to rehab either in place of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from rehabilitation as an alternative to being punished for their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been verified that people who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues rather than other penalties being forced upon them have much better odds of staying out from the courts than those who are fined, ordered to prison time, etc. In alcohol and drug rehab facilities DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to be able to address these problems and find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances within their lives which trigger their drug or alcohol use. This will certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those that may be impacted by their drug or alcohol use whenever they drive while intoxicated in the foreseeable future. This is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
