(MORRIS-TURNBERRY, ON) – A 36 year old is facing some serious criminal charges after his out of control Camaro essentially got run over by a small “monster truck”. Shortly after 8:00 p.m. on May 9, 2015 the accused was travelling northbound on Clyde Street in Bluevale at a high rate of speed when he entered a curve on the roadway. The driver lost control of the rear end of his Camaro and his vehicle ultimately went into the path of a southbound modified Ford Super Duty pickup truck. The pickup truck then drove over the hood of the Camaro. Fortunately for the driver of the Camaro he escaped serious injuries however he did not escape the long arm of the law.
Huron County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) arrived on scene and upon speaking with the driver of the Camaro they determined his ability to drive a motor vehicle was impaired by alcohol. He was placed under arrest and transported from the collision scene to the Exeter OPP Detachment for breath tests. He subsequently provided two samples of his breath to a qualified Intoxilizer Technician and both of his tests were above the legal limit.
Further investigation revealed the Camaro was not insured nor were there licence plates attached to the vehicle.
As a result, 36 year old William YOUNG from Huron East has been charged with Dangerous Operation of a Motor Vehicle, Impaired Driving, Drive Motor Vehicle Over 80 Milligrams of Alcohol, Drive Motor Vehicle – No Insurance & Drive Motor Vehicle – No Plates. He has been released from custody with a court appearance scheduled for the Ontario Court of Justice – Wingham on June 18, 2015. He also received an automatic 90 day driver’s licence suspension and his motor vehicle has been impounded for seven days.
