Businesses in Nevada face no liability for overserving patrons who cause DUI crashes, relying on alcohol awareness training as a preventive measure. Anyone who sells or serves alcohol in Nevada is required to complete state-approved training every four years. This is due to Nevada lacking a "dram shop" law, which typically holds bars and restaurants liable for damages caused by intoxicated customers, but Nevada's laws shield businesses from liability. Experts attribute this to lobbying interests from the gaming and entertainment industries, which have traditionally prioritized training over civil litigation. Fines start at $500 for businesses that fail to ensure that their employees complete alcohol training, and a third offense is $3,000. There are 16 companies in Nevada that are state-certified to give public trainings on alcohol safety.
