We don't know, because 2008 isn't over yet, and statistics are usually about 18-24 months behind.

In 2006, the last year for which full statistics are available, there were 42,532 deaths in traffic crashes, and 15,829 in alcohol-related crashes (37% of the total).

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), "A motor vehicle crash is considered to be alcohol-related if at least one driver or non-occupant (such as a pedestrian or pedalcyclist) involved in the crash is determined to have had a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .01 gram per deciliter (g/dL) or higher.
