RCMP Spot Checks

Another Long Weekend is upon us and that means RCMP are beefing up patrols. Officers will keep an eye out for all violations but in particular drinking and driving and getting behind the wheel if you are high. Staff Sgt. Stephane Caron admits to us, it can be tougher to find those who have been smoking a joint or taking some pills compared to those who have had to many drinks,
So far this year, 20% of serious collisions RCMP have responded to have involved an impaired driver.
