Dram Shop Act was created in order to force taverns (or those places serving alcholic beverages) to obtain Dram Shop Insurance. If one goes to a bar and ends up having an accident after drinking (off premises) then the victims will include in their MULTIPLE suit - the tavern. Their end of the payout comes from their DSI premiums - sort of like our Homeowners Insurance Policy.
