In Ohio, alcohol related deaths and traffic fatalities in general reached their highest points in 1987, with 1,007 and 1,772, respectively. The year that showed the highest percentage of traffic fatalities that were alcohol related was 1982, with 60%. The lowest number of drunk driving deaths occurred in 1994, with 455, and has not shown improvement since then. In the last year reported, out of all traffic fatalities, 31% involved a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08 or higher, down from 54% in 1982.

In addition to drunk driving being a criminal matter (court matter and a crime) it is also an administrative matter pertaining to the drivers license (immediate, mandatory and automatic license suspension). Immediate driver license suspension laws for alcohol-impaired drivers, refers to administrative per se (APS), automatic license revocation (ARL) or on-the-spot license suspension laws. These laws are different for each state and each one has it own automatic license suspension consequences.
