"I think you don't know what you think you know about this"? I'm not claiming to know much here. As far as I can tell, you don't forfeit your car when you get a DUI. Anecdotal and from the State of Alaska's website that's far from the case. There's a bit of a gulf to cross between forfeiting your property and having it impounded. I don't think you know as much as you think you know about this.
