The penalty for drunk driving should be more severe than the penalty for poaching an animal.  I think the argument has been that the offender needs their automobile to get to work.  I think this argument is flawed.  In the case of poaching; the automobile is not a weapon.  When someone gets killed by a drunk driver the weapon is always the automobile.  I think many people would agree that the first time you get caught drunk driving you should lose your automobile, pay a fine and receive probation.  This would be a pretty strong deterrent.  A second offense should include jail time etc.   I feel the penalty for killing a person should be more severe than the penalty for harvesting a game animal out of season.
