Maybe. It’s easy to second guess. What if she had been drunk though and people all said “it’s none of my business’ and she went out and had an accident.

Asking a waiter or a waitress if they were serving her glass after glass of wine would have been a much better route to take, as the restaurant could have intervened if they were serving wine to an intoxicated person and made a decision to stop, call a cab or if there was resistance then call the police. This bystander was playing gotcha, and didn’t seem to be all that concerned about the public welfare. She could have killed someone while he was following her, and calling the police. Stopping any potential problem at the point where she was not in her car would have made much more sense. The problem could have been resolved in a more responsible way. This bystander made his own assumptions without bothering to get the facts. He had time to try to determine the situation while he saw her being served “glass after glass of wine.”

It is the RESPONSIBILITY of the establishment serving alcohol to judge whether or not a patron is impaired. Her waiter knew that she was drinking water not wine. The idiot who reported her did not. Who would you say had a better understanding of the situation, the waiter or the busy body?

Yee far better ten innocment get punished than one possible guilty go free! "If it saves just one life it will be worth it." Thank you MADD, Sara Brady, and every other braying jackass who wants to take away freedom in the name of safety. I see you approve of the "big brother" approach of government. People with your attitude will make a good subjects for Obama's reign. Your attitude would be very familiar to the subjects of the former Deutsch Democratische Republik.
