Abstract:

In 2022 there were 13,524 fatalities in motor vehicle traffic crashes in which at least one driver was alcohol impaired. This represented 32 percent of all traffic fatalities in the United States for the year. Traffic fatalities in alcohol-impaired-driving crashes decreased by 0.7 percent (13,617 to 13,524 fatalities) from 2021 to 2022. One alcohol-impaired-driving fatality occurred every 39 minutes in 2022, on average. Drivers are considered to be alcohol-impaired when their blood alcohol concentrations (BACs) are .08 grams per deciliter (g/dL) or higher. Thus, any fatal traffic crash involving a driver with a BAC of .08 g/dL or higher is considered to be an alcohol-impaired-driving crash, and fatalities occurring in those crashes are considered to be alcohol-impaired-driving fatalities. This fact sheet covers the economic cost for traffic crashes; drivers; children; crash characteristics; time of crashes; data by state; and important safety reminders.
