DUI/DWI clients who're taking part in drug treatment facilities are either there by their own choice, but generally in drug rehab as part of a mandated court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, especially initial offenders may be ordered to treatment either in place of other consequences or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from rehab as an alternative to being punished because of their crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been verified that people who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues as opposed to other penalties being forced upon them have far better odds of staying out from the courts than those who find themselves fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse alcohol and drugs, in order to address these problems and find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances in their lives which set off their drug abuse. This can truly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be impacted by their drug abuse should they drive while intoxicated in the foreseeable future. It is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
