In most states if an obviously intoxicated person continues to be served drinks and causes an automobile accident, the host/server/bartender that continued to serve drinks while knowing the person was obviously intoxicated is partially responsible and can be criminally prosecuted for the accident as well as the drunk person involved in the accident.
