Dufferin OPP would like to thank concerned citizens who contacted police to report a possible impaired driver. These calls save lives and are treated as a high priority. If you suspect an impaired driver, make that lifesaving call and dial 9-1-1.
Members of the public are reminded not to drive when planning to drink or consume drugs. There are many alternative options to remove impaired driving from the picture, such as a designated driver, taxi, rideshare, public transit, or staying the night.
