Commentary
Anytime I hear about an accident in which alcohol is involved, I have to wonder if a bar played any kind of a role in things. Bars in Texas — and many other states in the country — are forbidden from serving drinks to customers who are visibly intoxicated. Some bars choose to ignore this. When that happens, they can be held responsible for any accident that they may happen to get into. Of course, it’s possible that no bar was involved here. One can get alcohol from so many other places. However, if there’s even a chance that a bar was at fault for what happened here, I would want to know about it. Bars that feel they have that small a responsibility to their customers should be held responsible for their actions.
