Question: Who is ultimately responsible for ensuring that alcohol is served responsibly in a licensed establishment?
Answer options:
- The customer consuming the alcohol.
- The police. ✅ The licensee (owner/manager) and the server.
- The person who drove the customer to the establishment.
Correct answer: The licensee (owner/manager) and the server.
Explanation: Both the licensed establishment (licensee/owner/manager) and the individual server are legally responsible for ensuring that alcohol is served responsibly. While customers have personal accountability, the establishment and its staff bear the legal burden of responsible service. The police enforce the law, but aren't responsible for the service itself, and the driver's responsibility is separate.
