OK…what good is it to have a designated driver in the first place, if all they are going to do is drop their drunk friend off at their car so they can get in it and drive? Why not pick this person up at his house and drop him off there? Isn’t the point of a DD not to have a drunk person have to drive after a night of drinking?!
Your Honor, you see, it’s not MY fault I got loaded, unlocked my car, got into the car, put the key into the ignition, started the engine, and then drove it… You see, this buddy of mine, he came out with me, but you see, he didn’t drink, and he dropped me off where I asked him to, so it’s HIS fault!
your honor, i the bartender and not to be held accountable for the individual who walked into my bar. i served him drink because he paid for them. he did not drive into my bar nor did i see if he had driven a vehicle into the lot next to the bar. in fact, i don’t know if he had driven at all. … so, what now?
Only in Rhode Island.
