No the number of deaths went down
yes, by 69
The rate of traffic deaths at night is higher than the one during the day.
The number of deaths total was 3244. The number of alcohol related deaths was 1041. Divide 1041 by 3244 and you're left with around .32. Convert the decimal into a fraction and then you're left with 32%. The percentage of traffic fatalities that were alcohol-related is 32% when compared to the total amount of traffic related deaths in florida in 2008.

1982 - 60 percent of all U.S. traffic deaths. 2007 - 41 percent of all U.S. traffic deaths. :)

Traffic crashes by far. Most recent stats I could find showed about 29,500 total firearm deaths in the US (not just handguns, all firearms). Traffic crashes accounted for about 42,500 deaths. If you're talking about accidental deaths (that is, many of the 29,500 firearm deaths are intentional), traffic accidents are much, much more likely to cause a death than an accidental firearm death.
Alcohol-related traffic fatalities.
I have no data on total deaths in 2006, but there were 43,200 deaths in traffic crashes in 2005.
