[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 601969, member: 60724"] Yes, Grump DID hit the nail on the head. The action by the TABC *IS* to help prevent drunk driving, the breaking of one law. And, they are enforcing another law that is on the books to do so. So, as I said, several times, "WHAT IS WRONG WITH THAT?" And, please, don't answer with the rhetoric about "HOW DO YOU KNOW if the PI person will drive, or has a DD, etc." because, that is MOOT. A law has been broken, period. The fact is, a LAW (PI) is broken, and the more PI people you remove from a bar the more you will prevent drunk driving (a statistically logical assertion). I would agree that if a NEW law were being proposed, or changes to the PI law, than I could understand the uproar. So please, Tom, others, if authorities can reduce incidents of one law being broken by more aggresively enforcing some other law, what the heck is the problem? This is NOT the first time one law or set of regulations has been more tightly enforced to curb the breaking of some other law, is it? And if not, do you DISAGREE with all such similar situations?
