Which of the following individuals are classified as prohibited persons under the sale of alcohol legislation?

Employees and volunteers
Minors and intoxicated persons
Parents and legal guardians
Underage siblings

The correct answer is: Minors and intoxicated persons

The classification of prohibited persons under the sale of alcohol legislation is primarily established to protect public health and safety. Minors, who are individuals under a specified legal drinking age, are prohibited from purchasing or consuming alcohol. This restriction exists because alcohol can have detrimental effects on the developing bodies and brains of young people. Additionally, intoxicated persons are classified as prohibited because they may not exercise sound judgment and could pose risks to themselves and others if allowed to purchase or consume more alcohol. The emphasis on these groups highlights the legislative intent to minimize harm by preventing access to alcohol for those who are unable to make informed decisions due to their age or state of intoxication. This focus creates a framework for responsible alcohol distribution and consumption, ensuring that businesses comply with laws designed to protect vulnerable populations.
