that is, at least that bartender shouldn't have served them the last one (or three).

I have had some acquaintance with alcoholics. Usually by the time they get busted, it is quite evident to everyone around them, that they shouldn't be drinking.

So, if you are going to compare this to someone getting a DUI, um yeah.
