According to police, there was evidence the vehicle had rolled, although they did not speculate how many times.

No injuries were reported.

Additionally, the man's driver's licence has been suspended for 90 days and his vehicle has been impounded for one week.

The man is scheduled to appear in Goderich court in relation to the charges on April 7.
