Question: You see a group of minors outside your establishment attempting to get an adult to buy them alcohol. What should you do?
Answer options:
- Ignore it, as they are outside your premises.
- Allow the transaction as long as the adult is of legal age. ✅ Intervene and prevent the adult from purchasing alcohol for the minors.

Correct answer: Intervene and prevent the adult from purchasing alcohol for the minors.
Explanation: It is illegal to sell or supply alcohol to a minor, whether directly or indirectly (e.g., through an adult acting as a proxy). As a server, you have a responsibility to intervene and prevent the adult from purchasing alcohol for the minors, even if the transaction is happening just outside your licensed premises.
