Restaurant Ridiculous: Dram Shop & Alcohol Liability Personal Injury Lawsuits: Negligent Acts, Management Fails & 99 Signs of Visible Intoxication

By Howard Cannon

Every 39 minutes someone dies on America's roadways - and countless others are being injured, harmed, and maimed - because of a drunk driver.

Without question, many of those drunk drivers were being overserved alcohol in restaurants and bars, long after showing their first visible signs of intoxication to the person who served them.

Serving a customer alcohol after that customer has shown visible signs of intoxication is dangerous, deadly, irresponsible, and illegal - and could turn into a horrendously stressful, time-consuming, and expensive lawsuit.

So what's wrong with America's Restaurants and Bars?

The best answer I can give you is this: the restaurant and bar industry is covered up with ignorance, apathy, incompetence, and management neglect. Competent management oversight is often non-existent, and the cesspool of mediocrity and below-industry standard operational performance is putting us all at risk - making the restaurant and bar industry the most dangerous industry on the planet, and the overserving of alcohol to a visibly intoxicated person the catalyst that is killing innocent people from sea-to-shining-sea at a record pace. That's what's going on

Inside this book, court-testifying Forensic Scientist and Restaurant Expert Witness Howard Cannon reveals the 99+ signs of visible intoxication that employees and employers should know, the scientific formula for risk assessment used by industry risk managers, the four biggest industry hazards pertaining to overserving, the standard steps to create a culture of safety for the industry, and much more
