Mother of man "over-served" alcohol at Kelsey’s restaurant before fatal car crash speaks out 

This is what you call not taking responsibility for drinking and driving

“The role of society”? No no no. PERSONAL accountability. There is ONE person to blame here and we all know it.

It was his choice.He was a full grown adult man who could've killed someone else because he was so self centered.

Blaming the restaurant is absolutely insane!

Blaming the service staff for not babysitting an adult is absurd. About ten years ago I got a DUI. You know who I blamed? Myself. It wasn't ANYBODY ELSES fault but my own. If you can't take responsibility for that, you're not responsible enough to have a car in the first place. That's why when you get a DUI they take your car away, not go around shutting down the liquor store you bought the booze from.

Stop blaming others for your kids mistakes

My parents allways told me that "you are your own liquor control board"

Your son should take blame too. He knows hes gonna fire all those shots, take 3 not 18 bud. It cost you ur life.

He was old enough to make his own choices people. Is it irresponsible of any person to drink that much Yes however making new laws and limiting others freedom because of a few is not okay

This would never of happened if motor vehicles were banned from the law abiding soccer moms and grocery getting dads.

absolutely their own fault

No one forced him to drink.

Do not drink and drive. It’s your responsibility to stay off the friggin road when you’re drunk!!!!!!!!!!😵😵‍💫🥴

Only 1 person to blame here.

Even if he wasn’t over-served, he would still be intoxicated enough to be in a fatal accident. Can’t blame the restaurant for his bad decision.

They would over serve people so badly at the casino I worked at, they would fall off their chairs plastered. But as long as they kept playing the casino made money.

Your son played the only roll know your limits 😂

So its restuarants fault to know hes gona drive?

Wow. Come on lady it’s obvious who is responsible

This woman is very reasonable, and I applaud her for making her story known, the details are a good lesson for both drinkers and servers alike. She didn't come out trying to displace blame from her son, just illustrating how the checks and balances put in place by our liquor board were not followed and part of the overall circumstances that led to her being a grieving mother.

Canadian media victim mentality......the bartender is not your mother......

Your the bartender for all you know he took a Uber why cut them off if there not getting rowdy it’s there responsibility to be a adult

This is sad and heartbreaking! May the good Lord strengthen you and the entire family. My condolences to you all 🙏🙏🙏

I'm a bartender and when I saw this I thought it was ridiculous but 18 shots???? That bartender should be held accountable.

lol try personal accountability for a change beta

What an amazing woman... I hope for nothing but the best for her after having to endure something so horrible.

Blame the bar......adult decisions

Ok everyone, put the pitchforks down. They said, "her middle child, 22 year old..." They aren't trying to say he is still a child. They are just saying that If you're a parent, those are always going to be your children no matter how old they get. Also, not trying to defend this guys heinous actions, but do places not cut off patrons anymore? 18 shots seems a little excessive for one person Anyways, at the end of the day this video is still extremely tone deaf and the message they are trying to get across isn't the right one. "Don't do this so your mother doesn't get this same call one day." How about, "Don't do this so you don't kill any innocent people." Buddy got so lucky he didn't hurt anyone else. If you wanna call him "lucky"

So sad

Their license should be suspended permanently they should not have served him.more than 2 shots

Shod have raised him better!!!!

Any patrons drinking alcohol must give their keys to the bartender and get the key once tested for alcohol levels are okay for driving

This why it's important for waitstaff and Anyone involved working on a premises that involves the sale of alcohol to have smart serve. If the waitstaff are coming to the bar to pick up drinks at a large place with a lot of customers, it is not realistic to expect the bartender to keep track of it all. The waitstaff have to be trained to recognize yellow flags (you want to avoid the red ones) know the legal limit, size of customer/time passed/amounts consumed . Sometimes people come into an establishment already intoxicated, the hostess and waitstaff have to be versed in smart serve to know that person must not be served. There's no way for the bartender to know, if that customer sits away from the bar, to see the signs of intoxication. and this is why anyone working where alcohol is sold must have smart serve.

😂get real woman your son knew fkn better

😂😂😂😂

Nah, 18 shots is on the restaurant. I was going to say accountability until I heard that. Both are to blame for their poor decisions that night.
