My response is also simple old enough to drink old enough to do it responsibly, if not get arrested, if there are any police that aren't chasing the motorist for a few £'s that is!
My mates lad has his head smashed through a window in town, very nearly got him dead where the cuts were, but as I said he knows the score and still goes there, I won't let my lad there on fridays or weekends after after around 5pm.
I don't even drive through there anymore.
