Milford Makes List of Places With Bars Serving 'Last Drink Before OUI'
Dozens allegedly consumed their "last drink" before a drunk driving arrest in Milford, and the town also made the Top-50 list of MA bars.

MILFORD, MA — While there were far fewer "last drinks" consumed in Milford than some other areas, there have been several dozen OUI convicts to consume their final alcoholic beverage before an OUI arrest in the town.
Milford has been the "place of last drink" for 78 people who have been arrested and convicted for operating under the influence in the last four years, according to The Boston Globe. The Globe report said that number was for people arrested between 2012 through Sept. 2016 who said they had their last drink at a bar or restaurant in Milford.
There has been just one "place of last drink" report in Milford per capita (1,000 residents).
