In Pennsylvania, a bar or drinking establishment can not serve someone who is visibly intoxicated. Meaning, someone who is showing visible signs of being drunk. If they serve a visibly intoxicated person who then leaves and causes a car accident, the bar can be held responsible in a "civil" personal injury case.
Unfortunately, the news too frequently involves heart-breaking stories of drunk driving accidents in our area. These often occurred on main highways like Route 422 or Route 100. But also there are local roads as well.
