Alcohol-impaired driving is the deadliest and costliest danger on the nation’s roads, with approximately one-third of all traffic deaths in the United States caused by drinking and driving. One person dies in an alcohol-impaired driving crash every 49 minutes—that is 29 people each day. In 2016, 10,497 deaths were caused by alcohol-impaired driving—the largest single cause of traffic fatalities.
