禁止酒吧和餐馆向已经喝醉的顾客提供酒精饮料的法律很少得到执行。在密歇根州沃什特诺县引入执法措施后,观察到拒绝为模拟中毒的“假巴”提供服务的比例从17.5%上升到54.3%,最终下降到41.0%。与此同时,来自酒吧和餐馆的酒后驾车者的比例从31.7%下降到23.3%。在一个比较县,拒绝服务的上升幅度明显较小,从11.5%上升到32.7%,而来自酒吧和餐馆的DWI的百分比没有显着变化。拒绝服务与业务量和醉酒顾客的数量在一个机构在观察的时候,而被捕的DWI的数量与该机构的客户,政策和做法的性质。虽然执行酒精服务法提供了一个潜在的成本效益的手段,减少高速公路碰撞,复制在其他司法管辖区是必要的。
Laws prohibiting the service of alcohol to already intoxicated patrons of bars and restaurants are seldom enforced. Following introduction of an enforcement effort in Washtenaw County, Michigan, observed refusals of service to ''pseudopatrons'' simulating intoxication rose from 17.5% to 54.3%, declining eventually to 41.0%. At the same time, the percentage of those arrested drunk drivers coming from bars and restaurants declined from 31.7% to 23.3%. In a comparison county, refusals of service rose to a significantly smaller extent, from 11.5% to 32.7%, while the percentage of DWIs coming from bars and restaurants showed no significant changes. Service refusals were related to volume of business and numbers of intoxicated patrons in an establishment at the time of observation, while numbers of arrested DWIs was related to the nature of the establishment's clientele, policies, and practices. While enforcement of alcohol service laws offers a potentially cost beneficial means of reducing highway crashes, replication across additional jurisdictions is needed.
