A Wawa senior's facing impaired driving charges after being stopped for driving too slowly.
Superior East Ontario Provincial Police say officers conducted a traffic stop on Churchill Avenue after seeing a vehicle "travelling at a low rate of speed" the evening of October 20th, with the driver testing a "FAIL" on a subsequent breath test, so he was arrested and taken to the Wawa detachment for further testing.
The 82-year-old was charged with operation while impaired and operation while impaired - blood alcohol concentration (80 plus), then released with a December court date.
OPP remind drivers "no amount of alcohol or drugs in your system is safe while driving", urging those who suspect an impaired driver - on roads, waterways, or trails - to call 9-1-1 as "your phone call could save someone's life".
