How many people are convicted of drink driving each year?

Answer 1

Well according to the 2008 F.A.R.S. database, there were 84,026 persons and 66,244 drivers involved in 60,508 crashes which killed 41,059 people. 9,447 of these persons (11.2% of them) and 8,841 crashes (14.6% of them) were reported by the police as "Alcohol-Involvement". BAC tests proved 5,946 of these persons (7% of all persons and 63% of those reported by the police as "Alcohol-Involvement") had a B.A.C. greater than 0.10, compared to 4,001 (4.8% of all persons and 37% of those reported by the police as "Alcohol-Involvement") who were proven to have nothad a BAC greater than 0.10. So more than a third of Americans who the police suspected had been drinking were proven by B.A.C testing to be innocent of all charges and most likely were not arrested for drinking and driving or alcohol use, leaving a maximum of 5,946 who might have been arrested. If a driver collides with a pedestrian or bicyclist or motorcyclist who has been drinking, the police almost automatically list this accident as "Alcohol-Involvement". Since motorcyclists usually kill only themselves and nobody else, it they should be excluded the motor vehicle driver category. 2,247 of the remaining 5,946 persons with a B.A.C. greater than 0.1 or 38% of them, died while driving an ATV, snowmobile, farm equipment, forklift, bicycle, motorcycle, or as a pedestrian, leaving a total of 3,699 drivers (5.6% of all drivers and 4.4% of all persons) who were in fatal accidents who were proven to have had a B.A.C greater than 0.10 who MAY have been arrested for this crime. Since N.H.T.S.A. has determined that young drivers who drink don't have a higher accident rate than young drivers who don't drink (who DO have a very high accident rate, but for other reasons) their 2,698 Police-Reported Alcohol Involvement accidents must also be excluded as a factor, leaving a grand total of only 1,001 GUILTY-of-DWI drivers--1.5% of all drivers and 1.2% of all persons--who MIGHT have been arrested for this crime. The REAL question you ought to be asking is: when are we going to crack down on the 98.5% who drink so little that they caused 98.8% of all these other fatal accidents. However, it could be argued that SOME of these 976 alcohol-involved motorcycle deaths WERE caused by drinking motor vehicle drivers, rather than by drinking motorcyclists themselves--except that it seems that there are so FEW of them. Ditto for the 969 pedestrians, 148 ATV drivers, and maybe even the 2,698 young drivers. Just to be on the safe side, let's say drinking drivers DID cause 20% of these deaths, or 763 of them, giving us a grand total of 1,764 GUILTY-of-DWI drivers, 2.7% of all drivers and 2.1% of all persons, who MIGHT have been arrested for drinking and driving or alcohol abuse!

Answer 2

The number of people convicted of drink driving each year can vary depending on the country and reporting agencies. In the United States, for example, around 1 million drivers are arrested each year for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
