DUI/DWI clients who're involved in drug treatment centers are generally there by their own choice, but most of the time in drug rehab due to a mandated court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, especially initial offenders could possibly be required to go to treatment either in place of other consequences or as a part of a sentence. DUI/DWI clients can benefit greatly from rehab as an alternative to being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been established that people who are treated for drug abuse issues as an alternative to other penalties being enforced upon them have much better odds of remaining out of the courts than those people who are fined, ordered to time in jail, etc. In alcohol and drug treatment centers DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse alcohol and drugs, to be able to address these problems in order to find resolution for the actual situations and circumstances inside their lives which trigger their drug abuse. This could certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but people who may be affected by their drug or alcohol use if they drive while intoxicated later on. It's a real second opportunity for DUI/DWI clients.
