About 20,000 people, to date (estimated).
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) 37,261 people died in traffic crashes in 2008 in the United States (latest figures available), including an estimated 11,773 people who died in alcohol-impaired driving crashes. Drunk driving fatalities accounted for 32% of all traffic deaths last year, that is, on average someone is killed in an alcohol-impaired driving crash every 45 minutes in the U.S. (Source: NHTSA/FARS, 2009)
In 2006, about 28% of all traffic-related fatalities in the US were due to alcohol-impaired driving. This translates to approximately 13,500 people who died in drunk driving accidents that year.
We can expect the statistics for this year in late 2010.
