If a group arrives intoxicated except for one designated driver, what should you do?

Serve only the designated driver
Serve the group members because of the designated driver
Do not serve the intoxicated group members
Ask the designated driver to leave

The correct answer is: Do not serve the intoxicated group members

In a situation where a group arrives intoxicated, but one person is designated as the driver, the most responsible choice is to refrain from serving the intoxicated members of the group. This action is grounded in the principles of responsible beverage service, which emphasizes the importance of preventing alcohol-related harm and ensuring the safety of all patrons. Serving customers who are already intoxicated can lead to further impairment, increasing the risk of accidents and harmful behavior, both for the intoxicated individuals themselves and for others. By choosing not to serve the intoxicated group members, you prioritize their safety and uphold legal and ethical standards regarding alcohol service. Recognizing that the designated driver is sober does not justify serving alcohol to the rest of the group, as they may still pose a risk to themselves and others due to their level of intoxication. This careful approach helps maintain a safe environment and supports responsible consumption practices.
