DUI/DWI clients that are taking part in drug rehabilitation facilities are either there by their own choice, but generally in drug rehab due to a mandatory court ruling. DUI/DWI clients, especially initial offenders could possibly be required to go to rehabilitation either in lieu of other consequences or as part of their sentence. DUI/DWI clients will benefit greatly from treatment as an alternative to being punished for his or her crimes, and so can the judicial system. It has been determined that those who are treated for substance abuse issues as an alternative to other penalties being enforced upon them have far better odds of staying out from the court system than those who find themselves fined, ordered to jail time, etc. In drug treatment centers DUI/DWI clients can determine why they abuse alcohol and drugs, to enable them to address these problems in order to find resolution to the actual situations and circumstances within their lives which trigger their drug abuse. This may certainly save lives, not only the lives of the DUI/DWI clients, but those who may be impacted by their drug or alcohol use when they drive while drunk or high later on. It is a real second chance for DUI/DWI clients.
