Alcohol Safety

Answer: D - The maximum penalty for serving alcohol to a minor is prison time, which can be five years or sometimes more.

Serving alcohol to a minor comes with different options for penalties, largely depending on whether or not someone was injured as a result of the minor having consumed alcohol. Fines are common punishments, but the most severe penalty is prison time. And if the crime is marked as a felony (usually if something like a car accident is involved), the sentence can be five years or, in some cases, more.
