I only have an occassional drink/wine with dinner or after a long hot day of work/golf. I believe the police are only enforcing the laws passed by elected officials but the police could make better use of their time by catching drunk drivers and criminals instead of busting Grandma/Grandpa for sipping a beer while using their golf cart as a lounge chair. The community can and should get the law changed and vote out the people who think/thought this is a good law.
BATMAN911, You are so correct, and this is just another example, why police, do very little patrolling this days. BECAUSE IT DOES NOT PAY ANYTHING!!
