If you had the choice between 30 days in county jail or drug court which would you chose?

Doesn’t it seem that someone in this situation should just go ahead and do the 30 dys and just get it over with?? I heard drug court is having to appear several times a week for about 2 yrs with random drug/alcohol screens? So to me, 30 days would be better to do? Both are not something anyone wants to do, but if you were convicted of a crime and had the choice.

Please if anyone was in this situation, I would appreciate your personal imput!!!
