In most cases no, it is a civil matter between you and the bank. They have to serve you then have a sherriff come out to get the vehicle. Duck the process server, and your in the clear. They have to go through a lengthy legal process to get to the point where they can arrest you. If you catch the repo man in the act, he has to drop it by law no matter what bullcrap line he gives you, he must drop it, so if you catch him, call the police fast and say someone is in the process of stealing your car so they respond fast, then get in your car and hold the brake or whatever it takes to keep the car on your property. When the cops come, they will send the repo man packing, but he will be back. I am a former repo man so take what I say as fact. Remember, repo men lie their asses off and say you will go to jail and etc... they will say anything to get the car cause they dont get paid if they don't get it. If you buy a car from a dealership and they "roll" you the car before the deal is funded by the bank and then they can't get it funded and wan't you to bring it back and you run, they can report it stolen, because technically, it is still their car. I hope this helps somebody keep their car a little longer till they get back on their feet.

Should drunk drivers face life in jail?

If they kill someone while drinking and driving but if they don't and they only injure someone than they should get charged with assault or charged with man slaughter at least. I personally don't think they should go to jail for drinking and driving. I think that they should go to jail for at least 2 years so they learn not to do it again.
