Rhode Island S3000 mandates licensed retailers to provide drink lids upon request to prevent drink tampering.
Rhode Island S3000 requires licensed retailers authorized to sell intoxicating beverages to provide a lid to a consumer upon request. The law mandates that retailers conspicuously post a notice stating, "Don’t get roofied! Drink lids available here. Ask a staff member for details." Retailers may charge a reasonable fee for the lids, but the charge cannot exceed a reasonable amount based on the wholesale cost. A sole violation of this section results only in a warning by the department for the first offense.
