DUI/DWI clients who're taking part in drug rehabilitation facilities are generally there on their own accord, but usually in alcohol and drug rehabilitation due to a mandatory court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, particularly first-time offenders could possibly be required to go to rehab either in lieu of other penalties or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from rehabilitation instead of being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the court system. It has been proven that individuals who are treated for substance abuse issues as opposed to other penalties being forced upon them have far better odds of staying out from the court system than those who find themselves fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In drug and alcohol rehab programs DUI/DWI clients can establish why they abuse drugs and alcohol, in order to address these problems in order to find resolution for the actual conditions and circumstances within their lives which prompt their drug or alcohol use. This will truly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those that may be affected by their drug abuse if they drive while intoxicated down the road. It's a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
