Fake IDs have been shared among young adults who try to have fun with their friends over drinks. Although it may seem harmless to blow off some steam, it is a dangerous activity that could lead to fatal accidents, per data on alcohol-related incidents caused by underage drinkers. In Minnesota, from 2011 to 2015, nearly 7,900 DWIs were caused by underage drinkers. Driving While Intoxicated resulted in 30 tragic deaths, all preventable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As minors find ways to acquire alcohol, bar owners and staff are more vigilant than ever regarding fake IDs. With fake IDs getting more sophisticated, bar owners and staff must constantly train to recognize these fraudulent documents to prevent criminal and civil penalties. Serving alcohol to minors and sharing IDs also has severe consequences that everyone involved must face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Underage drinking is a serious issue that cannot be taken lightly. It is essential to recognize the consequences involved and promote responsible drinking. It is also up to parents and bar owners to stress these points and actively work together to prevent the tragedies that fake IDs can bring about. When it comes down to it, it is better to create safe and controlled environments to help young adults blow off steam and not put themselves and others at risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
