Isn't that kind of their job?

Officer, after responding to a drunk call: Can you call the cab company, or whatever it is, and ask them why they don't take drunk people home?

Dispatch, a few minutes later: I called the cab company. They said it's up to the driver's discretion whether or not to give somebody a ride home and whether they feel safe doing it. They said it's their right to choose to refuse service.

Officer: Wow. Alright, I'll remember that on Friday and Saturday nights and tell people to call someone else from now on.
