What percent of crashes are caused by alcohol?
The truth is that no one knows. What we know is that there are X number of crashes per year. We know that there are Y number of crashes per year where someone involved was legally intoxicated (even if that person were not at fault). We also know that X > Y. We don't know how many crashes are CAUSED by alcohol. We know that about 2.25% of all auto accidents had someone involved that was legally intoxicated. The big question is if there are more than 2.25% of people on the road at any given point in time that are intoxicated. Mathematically, if 3% of people on the road are legally intoxicated, then you are LESS likely to get into an accident if there is alcohol involved in some way. This is strictly a mathematical exercise. What is also true is that alcohol is involved in FATAL crashes about 41% of the time. I THINK what this means is that there is a huge difference between having a drink and driving and having 12 drinks and driving. My guess is that VERY intoxicated drivers are much more likely to lose all judgement and do very dangerous things. However, the statistics are incomplete because we don't know these things: Total number of drivers on the road Total number of intoxicated drivers on the road Number of accidents CAUSED by alcohol
