On June 15, just before 7:00 a.m., officers responded to a report of a collision involving two vehicles on Mayfield Road, at The Gore Road, in the Town of Caledon. During the course of the investigation, officers formed grounds that the driver’s ability to operate a motor vehicle was impaired by alcohol and was subsequently arrested. As a result, a 30-year-old from Bolton, was charged with: • Dangerous operation of a motor vehicle • Operation while impaired – alcohol • Operation while impaired – blood alcohol concentration (80 plus) • Possession of a Schedule III substance The accused is scheduled to appear at the Ontario Court of Justice at a later date to answer to the charges.

The OPP remains committed to keeping our communities safe through enforcement and public education. Drivers who are impaired by drugs or alcohol continue to pose a significant threat on Ontario roads. Whether a driver is impaired by alcohol or drugs, impaired is impaired, and impaired driving is dangerous regardless of the source of impairment. If you suspect that someone is driving while impaired, it is important to call 9-1-1 to report it.
