Can a bartender defend by saying “I couldn’t not tell she was drunk.”?

IMHO INALProsecutors would first have to find the particular bartender that over served her and prove that he knew she was drunk and decided to overserve her anyway.

I had a rental car that had a backup cam and it was just unnecessary and gave me an extra thing I needed to check.

I just back up slowly, even if I hit something I won't damage it.

If you back up like a maniac off to the races or can't turn your body slightly for some reason they could be useful but I just had even more anxiety trying to check to the side/back and also the front now.

lol sounds like that's what they have to do in ontario

Some sort of Gas mask on all the cows?

Nah I was there looking at it two days ago; it still looks like a someone holding a dick from multiple angles.

they couldnt get the installer back in a year to fix the clearly broken programming ?

I will have you know that I have been drunk at least three times in my life and never blew up a house

Edit: in the grand scheme of things, this might actually be good because it will give her the means to pay for the damages that she caused; even if she wins, she’s not getting rich, she’s just making other people whole.

🤮

Obviously before serving anyone in a dark concert venue, they should give out breathalyzer tests to ensure they’re mentally fit to have another drink!!!

I've been probably about as drunk as a person could be. This seems extreme.

It's almost as if the rich racist assholes who were in power before made sure the new government couldn't work.

It feels like cheating if a Fox News article is posted here

What was wrong with the light switches to begin with???

If the software company were stuck with the utility bills due to their failure, I bet they'd solve it ASAP.

Machinist here this guy is right.. it's literally a textbook failure of design.

If a relatively sober guy purchased the drink for her and server couldn't reasonapbly know it was for the drunk girl, then yes the server is off the hook. But now the guy buying the drink is in the same potential legal jeopardy the server would be.

I'm not trying to suggest these laws are fair. They are just the laws that exist.

Jeez, people just latch onto the backup camera thing like lemmings, eh? I agree with you, but I had to buy a car last year when there weren't a lot of options. So I had to get one with a backup cam and all the bells and whistles. My car has remote start, but it only works with the app. People who are saying modern cars aren't IoT aren't paying attention.

I'd wager she'd sue them for theft if they had done that.

I can tell you that they are nice when they work but sometimes lane keep assist jerks the wheel at a really inopportune time. Also these things break and are very expensive and also need to be recalibrated at times. They are nice. What's nicer is being completely aware and in control at the wheel. You get used to technology and start to rely on it and then become a worse driver. Just my opinion.

My point is we don't need more laws to protect ourselves from doing dumb shit, like not wearing helmets. It's common sense. The government can't protect everybody from harming ourselves and others during our process of being shot 90 feet into the air and still be a projectile for others to hit. The choices you make determines if you are SMART ENOUGH to continue to be on this planet without the aid of laws, regulations, and also if people were smart enough to know they are accountable of their own actions. And suing others for being too drunk is ridiculous! This can only tighten laws to micromanage the citizens better, because getting sued by a irresponsible person who survived a car crash that they started along with the chaos then after only makes people worry that there should be more regulations. Like how the US keeps regulating guns every time somebody loses their shit. It doesn't do anything. People still shooting each other.The same will go with that problem with her and her inability to take care of herself. If anything, she should be put in foster care for the mentally incompetent. Don't Drink and Drive. Common Sense; shouldn't be a law, but It has to exist because we're too dumb to think for ourselves.

The next vehicle you buy will likely have a backup camera at a minimum. Any vehicle made in 2018 or later is required to have a backup camera.

Agreed. How the hell am I on the hook for someone who is able to pronounce “vodka rocks” then walk away? If I have to lift his head off the bar to ask if he wants another that’s a different story. If this suit collects any money I hope she never sees a penny of it.

I get it, but as a bartender at a concert where there are several bars, it's hard to see who actually gets the drink, a male companion, boyfriend, husband, whomever, buys 2 at a time, at 1 station. Next station 2 more, come back to 1 get 2 more etc... and if there are 3 or more, gimme a break. Wheeeeee.

The people whose homes were destroyed don't need to sue the venue because their insurance is holding this woman accountable for the damages. She is suing to try to get the payments she owes to them covered by someone else.
