California has some of the most severe vehicular manslaughter laws in the country. If vehicular manslaughter occurs with a DUI, you are looking at-depending on the severity of intoxication-vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, or second-degree murder. And, yes, these would be felony offenses. The law article below goes into more detail on vehicular manslaughter and vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated.

How is drunk driving being addressed?

Depends on the state. In AZ, it is 10 days in jail, first offense, plus a fine, I think it's $250. And, a point on your record. And, you get a court-ordered ignition lockout on the car, at your expense, and for a year, I think. That is, if your car is new enough to take one.<smile> That is, for a simple DUI and not double the BAC limit or aggravated or causing accident while under the influence, vehicular manslaughter, underr age, etc. I think CA is a fine and point, only. Last I was there. NY had a mandatory prison on first DUI for a while--I don't know if it was shot down or not. I'm sure the ACLU jumped in and protested. Anywhere, it is at least the fine and a point.
