the problem (one of many) that I have with making the bartender/server responsible for the drunk: by the time a person is visibly drunk enough to get cut off, he or she is already too drunk to drive. at this point, he or she may (and often times do) get angry with the bartender for cutting him off, storm out and drive away drunk.
do we still hold the bartender responsible?
on the other hand, some people can be utterly plastered and exhibit very little outward signs of drunkenness. these folks usually do not get cut off, but still drive away drunk.
still wanna hold the bartender responsible?
I believe in the doctine of personal responsibility. if YOU chose to do something stupid, and something bad results, its YOUR fault and YOURS alone.
