Ancient Sumeria / Ancient Sumeria / Sumer 4000 BCSumer 4000 BC

◦Sumerians were skilled traders, farmers and craftsmen.

◦invented the wheel (potter’s wheel), ◦cuneiform writing system◦first astronomers, ◦arithmetic, ◦military formations and introduced

the basic divisions between infantry, cavalry and archers

◦first true city states, ◦intensive agriculture and irrigation.

In the Middle East, one of the problems is the availability of potable water. Sumerians also encountered this problem.

In order to solve this problem, they tried to come up with alternative drinking liquid particularly derived from fermented cereal grains.

Thus, ale was created which is today’s beer.

Some Sumerians produced more ale not only for themselves, but also for others who could not produce their own and this led to the establishment of the forerunner of today’s bar, the tavern.

Taverns – were places serving beverage particularly “ale” and places for social gatherings.

◦ Derived from the Latin term taberna and the Greek taverna, whose original meaning was a shed or workshop.

◦ Taverns have existed in England as early as the 13th century and were often kept by women usually known as ale-wives.

◦ By the 19th century in England, the word tavern had evolved, from tavern to public house (pub).

Empire Era 3200 – AD 476Empire Era 3200 – AD 476As a proof that taverns continued to exist after the

time of Sumerians, a papyrus was discovered from ancient Egypt which contained some warnings that says “do not get drunk in taverns . . . For fear that people repeat words which may have gone out of your mouth without you being aware of having uttered them.”

◦ An indication that early people already knows the effects of alcohol to the body and mind.

After the Romans succeeded the Greeks, Romans conquered almost all parts of Europe.

During their time, the reasons for travel continued to increase and this was due to the development of transportation particularly on the constructions of roads and bridges.

As more people travelled, the number of places serving food and drinks also increased.

President Aquino has signed into law a measure that would penalize drivers found to be driving under the influence of liquor or prohibited drugs with up to three months in prison and a fine of P80,000.

Republic Act 10586 or the “Anti-Drunk and Drugged Driving Act of 2013” also imposes harsher penalties in cases of drunk or drugged drivers getting involved in accidents, especially if there are casualties.

There will be a maximum fine of P200,000 for physical injuries incurred in accidents, and P500,000 if such collision resulted in somebody’s death.

P-Noy signs law vs drunk driving By Delon Porcalla (The Philippine Star) May 31, 2013

Aside from these, the Land Transportation Office shall confiscate and suspend for 12 months the license of a non-professional driver for the first conviction. On second conviction the license would be perpetually revoked.

For professional drivers, their license would be confiscated and perpetually revoked for the first conviction, which shall be the basis to disqualify the driver from “being granted any kind of driver’s license thereafter.”

Refusal to comply with mandatory tests for field sobriety and drug tests will result in confiscation and automatic revocation of license, aside from “other penalties provided and/or other pertinent laws.”

The owner and/or operator of the offending vehicle, in case of vehicles for hire, will be just as “directly and principally (held) liable together with the offender for the fine and the award against the offender for civil damages.”

However, the operator of the vehicles for rent may be exculpated if he “has exercised extraordinary diligence in the selection and supervision of his drivers in general and the offending driver in particular.”

“Section 7 now mandates the mandatory alcohol and chemical testing of drivers involved in motor vehicular accidents, so that will now be a staple,” Valte told a news briefing in Malacanang, adding that a breathalyzer would be used to verify alcohol or drug consumption.
