At approximately 9:30pm, a Traffic Unit officer was performing speed enforcement on Mapleview Drive East. The officer observed a vehicle travelling at a high rate of speed and after using a speed measuring device, obtained a speed of 115 km/h in a 50 km/h zone.
As the officer was stopping the vehicle, the Communication Centre received a call for a possible impaired driver that left a licenced establishment on Bryne Drive. The officer determined that this was the same vehicle and that the 31 year old Barrie male was impaired by alcohol. He was arrested for impaired driving and dangerous driving. After breath tests at the station an additional charge of Driving with more than 80mgs of alcohol was laid.
His car was impounded for seven days and his licence suspended for 90 days. He now has a September court appearance to attend.
