How much has teenage drunk driving increased?

Need to know some facts about TEENAGE drunk driving. like percents or why it has increased over the years and stuff like that.How much has teenage drunk driving increased?
Your question cannot be answered as it has a false assumption. The percentages of teenagers being involved in accidents, fatal accidents, and fatal accidents involving alcohol has *DROPPED* over the past several decades.





Comparing 2005 with 1995:





For under 16:


1995: 410 drivers, 9.3% BAC%26gt;=.08%: 38 drunk drivers.


2005: 304 drivers, 10.5% BAC%26gt;=.08%: 32 drunk drivers.





For young teens, 2005 saw a 20% reduction in fatal drunk drivers.





For 16-20:


1995: 7,725 drivers, 15.6% BAC%26gt;=.08%: 1205 drunk drivers.


2005: 7,334 drivers, 17.3% BAC%26gt;=.08%: 1268 drunk drivers.





For Teens, 2005 saw a 5% increase in fatal drunk drivers.





I could not find a breakdown by age, but in 2005 there were 200,549,000 licensed drivers, a 12% increase over the 176,628,000 licensed drivers in 1995.





Assuming a similar increase in the number of teen drivers, the RATE of fatal accidents *and* fatal accidents involving a BAC%26gt;=.08% dropped considerably from 1995 to 2005.How much has teenage drunk driving increased?
