Eighteen more drivers have been added to Santa’s blacklist during the fourth week of the Festive RIDE campaign (Reduce Impaired Driving Everywhere) in eastern Ontario, according to the Ontario Provincial police.
The latest numbers bring the total number of impaired drivers to 83, since the campaign kicked off Nov. 21.
“Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs puts everyone at risk. The safety of our community always comes first, so you can expect our officers will be out enforcing the laws, keeping our roadways safe. If you are celebrating throughout this holiday season, I urge you to make responsible choices. Let’s all do our part to ensure this holiday season is safe for everyone,” said chief superintendent, Lisa Wilhelm, OPP East Region commander.
Police say over 795 drivers have been checked during the campaign.
Meanwhile, 23 drivers received “warning-range suspensions,” including licence suspensions and vehicle impoundments.
