DUI/DWI clients who are involved in drug treatment centers are generally there by their own choice, but generally in alcohol and drug rehabilitation as part of a mandated court order. DUI/DWI clients, particularly first-time offenders could possibly be required to go to treatment either in lieu of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from rehabilitation as an alternative to being punished because of their crimes, and so can the court system. It has been verified that individuals who are treated for substance abuse issues as an alternative to other penalties being forced upon them have much better odds of remaining out from the courts than people who find themselves fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In drug rehabilitation programs DUI/DWI clients can ascertain why they abuse drugs and alcohol, in order to address these problems in order to find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances inside their lives which prompt their drug or alcohol use. This may certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people that may be affected by their drug abuse should they drive while under the influence later on. It is a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
