Chilliwack RCMP investigate four suspected impaired driving incidents
CHILLIWACK — Chilliwack RCMP investigated four suspected impaired driving incidents last week, including two single-vehicle crashes that resulted in 90-day driving prohibitions.
In the first incident, officers stopped a vehicle on Prest Road after observing it travelling 102 km/h in a 60 km/h zone. According to police, the driver displayed signs of impairment and had a history of impaired driving. Breath samples confirmed the officer’s suspicions.
The driver is expected to appear in court at a later date. He was issued multiple violation tickets, including for excessive speeding and driving contrary to licence restrictions. His vehicle was also impounded.
In a separate incident, police investigated a hit-and-run collision involving a parked vehicle on Teskey Road. A witness reported that the driver appeared confused and unwell. Another caller reported seeing the driver entering dwellings in an attempt to locate his own home.
