Stats from 2012 probably not available yet. Here's the Numbers from 2010:2010 California Statistics1,768 people died in traffic crashes that were a result of alcohol and other drugsThere were 24,343 traffic-related injuries involving alcoholThere were 195,879 DUI arrests
The latter question does not state that the total is out of 100, so in effect it could be 50 accidents out of a million were the result of alcohol. Also, the first question states that the person who caused the accident was a drunk driver, however the second does not make this point. As such an incident could be said to involve alcohol because a drunk person walked across the road and caused someone to swerve etc.

Alcohol impairs judgment, coordination, and reaction time, increasing the likelihood of accidents involving pedestrians. Both drivers and pedestrians under the influence are at a higher risk of being involved in traffic crashes, leading to severe outcomes such as fatalities. Strict enforcement of laws regulating alcohol consumption and emphasizing the importance of responsible behavior can help reduce these tragic incidents.
