Just minutes later, Caledon OPP officers responded to reports of a traffic complaint regarding a vehicle stopped within a live lane of traffic on Old School Road, at Dixie Road, in the Town of Caledon.

The following day, on July 20, 2025, at approximately 2:45 a.m., Caledon OPP officers were on general patrol in the area of Innis Lake Road and Healey Road, in the Town of Caledon, when a vehicle was observed displaying poor driving behaviour. A traffic stop was conducted and officers formed grounds that the driver’s ability to operate a motor vehicle was impaired by alcohol, in addition to other criminal offences.

Following the investigation, a 31-year-old from Caledon, was charged with:

• Failure to comply with release order – two counts

The driver was also issued a seven-day driver’s licence suspension as a result of their blood alcohol concentration.

Later that same day, at approximately 4:15 p.m., Caledon OPP officers responded to a report of a three-vehicle collision on Highway 10, at Olde Base Line Road, in the Town of Caledon. Officers arrived on scene and subsequently formed grounds that the driver’s ability to operate a motor vehicle was impaired by alcohol.

As a result, Giovanna VESPASIANI, 55, of Mississauga, was charged with:

• Fail to remain
• Operation while impaired – alcohol
• Operation while impaired – blood alcohol concentration (80 plus)

All accused parties are scheduled to appear at the Ontario Court of Justice in Orangeville on August 7, 2025, to answer to their charges. Those charged with operation while impaired offences were also subject to a seven-day vehicle impoundment and 90-day driver’s licence suspension.

The OPP remains committed to keeping our communities safe through enforcement and public education. In Ontario, alcohol-impaired driving is one of the leading causes of death on the roads. You can face criminal charges if your blood alcohol concentration is 0.08 or more. You can also face penalties if you are within the “warn range”, meaning your blood alcohol concentration between 0.05 and 0.079. If you suspect that someone is driving while impaired by alcohol or drugs, it is important to call 9-1-1 to report it.
