| 888385 | 2010-05-26 10:34:00 | Hey if you go on private property like a nightclub car park in your car, do you legally have to submit to a breath test by private security guards? It happens here: www.3news.co.nz There is a video there too. They even take your booze. Can you decline and turn around and go back out again? |

| 888386 | 2010-05-26 10:49:00 | They have every right to take your booze if you take it on their property, I think there's even a law saying they have to. On licensed premises you must buy it there unless otherwise stated | hueybot3000 (3646) | ||

Hell, they give you a free drink for your trouble, so where's the problem? Edit: This is a very good tactic in, IMO, it's more to combat pre-gaming so you end up spending more there. And they can do it under the guise of safety and whatnot. I remember being searched every now and then for alcohol in front of the cinema at Highland Park. They used to have a coin operated breathalizer at SkyCity a few years ago, it was nice to have. Edit: You're a moron. :) |
