Reply to comment by HeWhoIsNotMe in 85,000 tossed nips in Rhode Island collected in 90 days. by trashgirl1986

An older, uppercrusty Newport woman was complaining to me about picking up fireball nips on the beach every morning. In her pearls and blazer, she said, “Daaahling, why can’t they just use a small flask like rest of us?” 😂

bc driving around w a flask (i believe) is considered an open container.

yea anything that isn't factory sealed is an open container. There's an exception for bringing home an open bottle from a BYOB restaurant if you didn't drink it all but it has to be in the trunk and in a bag.

Just so you know, you can bring home an unfinished bottle of wine from any restaurant, not just BYOB places.

But it has to be placed in trunk, right?

Safest is in the trunk because if anything were to happen, a cop is simply less likely to see it if it’s in the trunk. But I believe that as long as it’s sealed in a bag, it’s not considered an open container.
