Tobacco: An estimated 8 million people die each year from tobacco-related causes, which would equate to roughly 80 million deaths over the last ten years globally. Alcohol: Globally, alcohol is estimated to be responsible for around 3 million deaths each year, so approximately 30 million deaths would be attributed to alcohol over the past decade.
The percentage of traffic fatalities in the U.S. that are alcohol-related is about 39%. This percentage has dropped steadily for about 25 years. It's important to realize that alcohol-related does not mean alcohol-caused, although it often is.

There are currently about 33,000 annual traffic deaths in the United States. This number has been dropping for the last several years. More and better air bags, better seat belt use compliance, and lower alcohol limits have probably all contributed to this. However, injuries usually run five to ten times deaths, so the traffic related toll is still very significant.
