You are serving a group of people who came in with a designated driver, but at the end of the evening you find out that the driver had to leave an hour earlier for a family emergency. The rest of the group is still there, and they have all had multiple drinks. What should you do?
  1. Call the police and tell them what’s going on.
  2. Try to contact the designated driver to ask if he or she can come back.
  3. Arrange alternate transportation home for the group.
  4. All of the above.
Explanation
Answer: C - For a group abandoned by its designated driver, the best action to take is to arrange alternate transportation.

There’s no reason to call the police (so far), and it’s very likely you won’t be able to get in touch with the designated driver. So, your best option is to take it upon yourself to offer the group alternate transportation home. Chances are they’ll need another way to get home anyway if they were all driven there by the person who left.
