It s the second state to do so.
Many states have laws on the books about bartenders or bar owners serving alcohol to someone who s visibly impaired. There are different rules for different jurisdictions, but generally if the patron is served when drunk, and gets in an accident, the bar can be held liable. Only one state has the same rule for gas station attendants, Tennessee. That was until Monday when the New Mexico Supreme Court ruled that service stations can now be liable for intoxicated drivers.
The case came from a federal appeals court to New Mexico, because of case of a drunk driver in 2011. The driver came to the station for gas, but it had no gas cans to sell. He then purchased a gallon of water, emptied it, filling it with gas. He came back later and filled up his car, before dropping off his passenger. He then entered the highway, crossed the center lane and crashed, killing the occupant of the opposing vehicle.

How This New Mexico Drunk Driving Ruling Is Just Plain Stupid
Drunk driving is NEVER okay, but what if you re doing your job and never even interact with the drunk driver? This law makes it so you could still be charged.
Buckle up, we ve got a lot of unpacking to do from this decision by the New Mexico Supreme Court announced this week. On Monday, the New Mexico Supreme court made a decision that could make gas stations liable for selling fuel to drivers who they believe to be intoxicated.
According to KOAT 7 News, gas vendors may be liable for negligently supplying gasoline to a drunk driver who could potentially injure other people. The decision was in response to a 2011 case where a McKinley County vendor sold gas to an intoxicated driver. Driver Andy Denny ran out of gas and the gas station near Tohatchi sold him gas and Denny drove off. His vehicle crossed the centerline and he struck another vehicle head-on, killing one person, per Fox 34.
