First of all, debaser, I was referring to Lebell's post not your figure (albeit less than 1/350th of the population, BTW).
Secondly, thanks for the response. That makes one person--would you elaborate on the circumstances?
edit: the "low" number in your link was actually 108,000 which would place DGU at less than 1/2,593rd of the population. I've already pulled the stats from a crim database on the ratio between DGU and fatal accidents. It was exceedingly high but no one came back with any stats of their own. I can't find the thread anymore which is a shame.
