The bartender that night is 40 and it is her job to card you. If she serves under age people, then the whole place gets in trouble, including herself.

From the PMs I received, it sounds like the cop might not have realized he hit her. No one has said that he got her in his headlights and ran her down or anything - everyone said that the back end of his car hit her as he was turning his car around.
Sure, drinking and driving is a no-no - if you or I did it, we'd be arrested. But we'd also have to be stopped and breathalized. Can you imagine what would happen if the cops could just come to your house and arrest you for DWI based on what bar patrons and the bartender said? So there's no admissible proof that he was over the legal limit, therefore a DWI charge is out of the question.

Do I think the officer and his co-worker passenger were drunk at the time of the accident, yep, mainly because it doesn't take much to be considered legally intoxicated these days. 
But the problem is putting him behind the wheel DRUNK at the time of the accident. If anyone remembers, he left the scene, and it was several hours later that he was arrested and charged. He could say he went home and got drunk, didn't realized he hit her and that he was not drunk at the time of the accident. It happens all the time, and I mean all the time and because the state has to have the burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt, they get off.
There are bad people everywhere, even in law enforcement, don’t let one bad apple spoil everyone's opinion about the bunch.
And I'm posting this message anyway even if it is a repeat to vrai's because I was typing a response, got busy, came back and somebody said what I wanted to say.
: I hate when that happens.

You would not have seen the video. All the news channels did was interview the bartender. I've seen only 4 cameras in the bar...

If they did actually get the officer's on tape drinking it up, I'm sure the brotherhood that exists in the police department, kept it from getting released.
I'm not downing the police, so let me say that, but I just think that if it was Jo Blow the average everyday run of the mill guy, he would have been on channel 4, 5, 7, 9, at 4, 5, 6, and 10/11 news.
