Well, roughly 20% of adults in Americans smoke, according to a study cited by NPR.
There are 209,000000 adults in the U.S according to the 2000 census.
According to the U.S. dept. of Transportation, there is roughly 200,000000 drivers in the U.S.
probably not all the smokers have drivers licenses, so an estimated guess is roughly 15%
of drivers smoke.
How many would be At Fault in a collision would be less than that.
based of this info I would say 5-10 % chance the driver at fault in a collision would be a smoker.
