Despite the enforcement of the law forbidding consumption of alcoholic beverages in vehicles, drive-through alcohol venues will remain open. Owners say that the enforcement of the law, which also affects passengers, will reduce revenues by 90%, but that they would find ways to stay open. One place, El Trompo, will now open earlier and will begin to sell breakfast, while a gas station, Isla del Malecon, continues to sell beer to drivers, but with the bottle cap still on. The enforcement of the new law calls for the transit authority to stop anyone consuming alcohol while driving, forbids any alcohol bottle to be open in the vehicle, and for bottles to be carried in the trunk. Any person caught will have their vehicle towed away and will be fined.
