(PETROLIA, ON) –On Saturday July 25, 2015, members of the Lambton County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) were conducting a R.I.D.E. Program in the area of St. Clair Parkway and Brander Road, St. Clair Township.
At approximately 11:44 p.m., a member of the Lambton OPP observed a motor vehicle approaching the R.I.D.E. Program being operated in a concerning manner. The vehicle was stopped in the R.I.D.E. Program and officers made contact with the male driver. Upon speaking with the male driver, officers formed the opinion that the driver’s ability to operate the vehicle was impaired due the consumption of alcoholic beverages. The male driver was arrested and transported for breath testing which resulted in readings more than twice the legal limit.
65-year-old Norman SCOTT of St. Clair Township, ON was charged for:
Driving While Ability Impaired
Driving with More than 80 mgs of Alcohol in Blood
The accused will appear in the Sarnia Ontario Court of Justice on Monday August 17, 2015.
The OPP is committed to public safety, delivering proactive and innovative policing in partnership with our communities. As such, OPP officers conduct R.I.D.E. Programs throughout the year and throughout the province as part of the OPP’s Provincial Traffic Safety Program (PTSP).
