Not always. Brian Schwartz guy from Columbia, Maryland went to a happy hour where his colleagues said they watched him down 7+ drinks.  Then he got into his Mercedes and mowed down a 17 year old and  left him dead in the road.  He eventually turned himself in a few days later, but didn't admit to drinking so they couldn't get him on the DWI.  He served one week in jail.

After less than a week in jail and six weeks in a work-release program, the Columbia man who killed 17-year-old Esai Lopez of Gaithersburg in a hit-and-run collision last year has been transferred to home confinement to serve the rest of his one-year sentence.
The March 28 transfer of Brian Schwartz, 43, from a county work-release program to home confinement has left the Lopez family irate with the Montgomery County State’s Attorney’s Office for steering them toward a plea deal that could allow such an outcome.
Schwartz, who struck Lopez as he crossed Redland Road near Muncaster Mill Road with friends July 31, had been at a happy hour before the collision. He and three colleagues consumed 27 alcoholic drinks, according to police records. Schwartz did not admit to drinking, but his colleagues said the entire group was drinking, according to police records.

After hitting Lopez with his BMW, Schwartz fled the scene and replaced the car’s windshield before turning himself in to police three days later, according to police.
