of "public place" shall not include those premises duly licensed for
sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages on the premises or within
their own private property.

shall be presumptive evidence that the same is intended for consumption
in violation of this article.

An open container in any vehicle while in or on any
public sidewalk, street, highway, parking lot, public park or other
