Category - Intoxication

At what point should you start counting the number of drinks a customer has had?
  1. Once he or she starts to show signs of intoxication
  2. After he or she has had a couple of “starter drinks”
  3. Once he or she or someone he or she is with asks you to start keeping track
  4. From the first drink to the last - the entire time he or she is being served
Explanation
Answer: D - You should start counting a customer’s drinks when you first start serving him or her, from their first drink to their last.

If you have difficulty keeping a mental count, a good way to keep track is to keep tally marks on a piece of paper. If the customer has a tab open, put in each drink after you serve it and check the amount occasionally. Keeping records will also help you in certain legal situations, such as when a customer goes from your establishment to another (or multiple other establishments) and then gets into a car accident or other alcohol-related incident.
