The rate of alcohol-related motor vehicle crashes in America is high, resulting in negative consequences for the economy. Alcohol-related motor accidents accounted for a significant 16% of all traffic related causalities in America in 2015. Even small levels of blood alcohol levels increase the likelihood of motor vehicle accidents. 

The economic cost nationwide as a result of motor vehicle crashes amounts to about $230.6 billion every year. These costs result from medical, property damage, loss of productivity, and insurance. Traffic collisions is the leading cause of death and alcohol related cases are the highest.
