Continued from page 14 criminal code offence and immediately have their driver’s licence suspended for 90 days. Think you can have a few drinks and be sure you’ll blow under the legal limit? Think again. Drivers who blow in the Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) “Warn Range” of .05 to .08 pose a danger to themselves and other road users. If caught driving in the warn range, you will receive an immediate three- day driver’s licence suspension at the roadside and the suspension period increases with subsequent offences to seven then 30 days. Think your family and friends won’t report a loved one or other driver who takes to the wheel while impaired? Think again. The last thing people want to deal with over the holidays is the devastation of losing a loved one to an impaired driver. The OPP is asking Ontarians to help them crack down on impaired drivers this holiday season. If you suspect an impaired driver, call 9-1-1. The OPP encourages the public to sign up and participate in our social media discussions by following the links to our French and English social media accounts posted on the front page of the OPP website. Give us thoughts about impaired driving and show your support for the officers who will be working around the clock to make sure that you and your loved ones have safe and enjoyable holiday season.
