According to the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration, out of 12,998 people killed by drunk drivers in 2007, 311 of them were children under the age of 16. Of â¦ course, when you think about it, everybody is somebody's child.
But to answer your question about 800 people die a year especially when the drinking age was 18, but now it's reduced because the legal age is 21. We are down in recent years, to 12,744 out of 33,808 (38% of fatalities) being the result of drunk drivers in the US in 2009.
