Torn, how did the bartender know that they guy drove in? Could he have walked? Taken a bus? Come with a friend? Are they suppose to ask for car keys and such before they serve a drink? You know it only takes one drink an hour to make it to the 0.08 level.
Visibly intoxicated is well past not legally qualified to drive.
Theoretical question: same guy goes into a bar, drinks 4 drinks an hour for 3 hours, walks out to his truck, pulls out a chain saw and slices some poor bystander to death with it. Was the bar negigent this time?
Is the drunken dufus with the chainsaw EVER LIABLE?
It makes me sick to think that people selling a legal product in a legal manner have to play baby sitter, nanny, and mother to a bunch of people who just can't control themselves even slightly.
