Exactly this. I get that the police are just doing their job, but this is exactly why at the ripe age of 21 I very rarely (1-2x a year) go to clubs or bars and actually drink.

It's one big fucking money grab.

Can't drive to the club and drive home drunk (rightfully so).

TransLink stops their trains at around 1:30AM on weekends (why? it's not like there are drivers who need to rest).

Can't drive to the club and sleep in your car until the next day (so much wtf).

Which basically leaves you the option of waiting for 30-45 minutes outside for a shitty cab, driven by a usually unsafe driver, and paying through the nose. Gotta love it. Even when you are trying to do the right thing you get screwed over for it.
