      STATUTORY AUTHORITY: KRS 241.060

      NECESSITY, FUNCTION, AND CONFORMITY: There is no specific provision enabling a retail package or retail drink licensee to use their own truck in transporting alcoholic beverages. This administrative regulation permits retail package or retail drink licensee the limited privilege of transporting, by his own truck, distilled spirits and wine from express or freight depots nearest his premises to the premises themselves. This enables a licensee, if feasible, to do his own limited transportation and thereby save the cost of hiring such transportation by a commercial transporter.
