DUI/DWI clients who're involved in drug treatment programs are generally there by their own choice, but generally in drug treatment due to a mandated court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, particularly first-time offenders could possibly be required to go to treatment either instead of other consequences or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients may benefit greatly from rehabilitation as opposed to being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the court system. It has been established that individuals who are treated for drug or alcohol use issues as opposed to other penalties being forced upon them have far better chances of staying out of the courts than those who find themselves fined, ordered to prison time, etc. In drug rehabilitation programs DUI/DWI clients can ascertain why they abuse drugs and alcohol, to be able to address these problems in order to find resolution to the actual situations and circumstances in their lives which trigger their drug or alcohol use. This will certainly save lives, not just the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people that may be affected by their drug or alcohol use when they drive while drunk or high in the foreseeable future. This is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
