1. One assumes the dispenser knows when to say "no" and not sell beer to those clearly near or over the limit.
2. One assumes the dispenser knows when to check identification.
3. One assumes the Police patrol more frequently on week-ends and during the summer.
Having made these assumptions, I would note, this service will keep drivers off the road as they seek to replenisih dwindling supplies.
If beach consumption is such a bad thing, the town can enact an ordinance prohibiting on beach consumption. To date, they have chosen not to.
But, in all probability, it will only be a matter of time before someone will abuse the system; cause a major incident on the road; and ruin the system for all others. One can only hope there are no fatalities or serious injuries.
Perhaps the town should consider a prohibition against huffing.
