Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) officers were busy again this past weekend, arresting three suspected impaired drivers.
Two drivers were arrested in Lakeshore and the third in Essex.
The first incident was on Friday evening. At around 7 p.m., police received a complaint about someone driving on County Road 20 in Harrow.
The 24-year-old Kingsville man was eventually stopped and arrested. He was charged with impaired driving and driving with over 80 milligrams of alcohol in his blood.
Later that evening, at around 11 p.m., OPP officers conducted a RIDE (Reduce Impaired Driving Everywhere) checkpoint on Old Tecumseh Road in Lakeshore and questioned a 42-year-old man.
The driver was also arrested and charged with operating with a high blood-alcohol concentration.
The third incident was early Sunday morning. At around 2:50 a.m., an officer conducted a traffic stop on County Road 42 near Lakeshore Road 123 in Lakeshore.
A 22-year-old Lakeshore resident was charged with impaired driving, driving with a high blood-alcohol concentration, running a stop sign, and refusing to surrender their licence.
None of the charges have been proven in court.
All three driver's licences were suspended for 90 days, and their vehicles were impounded for seven days.
