It is not really possible to know how many vehicle accidents are caused by drunk driving. A person could make an educated guess, but never know for sure how accurate it was. In order to do this, you would have to find out have many accidents are actually caused by a drunk driver and how many are caused by a sober driver. Remember, a lot of vehicle accidents do involve a drunk driver, but they are all not necessarily all caused by them.
CHP maintains these statics. You might try there for info.

Studying accidents caused by drunk driving helps researchers and policymakers understand the causes, consequences, and patterns of alcohol-related crashes. This information can be used to develop effective prevention strategies, enhance enforcement efforts, and ultimately reduce the number of alcohol-impaired driving incidents.
