Buzzkill: How Servers Prevent DWIs
Wednesday, 10 September, 2025
In this episode, we talk with Tom Schuch, Director of Education at the New Mexico Restaurant Association, about the vital role servers and sellers play in preventing drunk driving. Fifty-eight percent of DWI arrests in New Mexico involve alcohol purchased at licensed establishments, making bartenders, servers, and clerks a first line of defense in keeping our roads safe.Tom shares insights from his years of experience training servers and sellers through New Mexico’s alcohol server certification program. We discuss the challenges of cutting someone off, strategies for handling difficult situations, and how responsible alcohol service can save lives.Additional links and resourcesNew Mexico Restaurant Association: https://www.nmrestaurants.org/I.D.
