It was a busier than normal weekend for police forces around the province and country. They were taking part in Operation Impact.....a campaign to make the roads in this country the safest in the world. In the Kennebecasis Valley....Sargeant Evan Scott tells CHSJ News, they nabbed one impaired driver and handed out 20 tickets for various violations. RCMP tell us they had 75 check-stops in this region set-up and stopped 16,000 vehicles.
All of the numbers haven't been added up but to this point they charged 18 people with drunk driving and there were over 200 tickets handed out for various charges. Sargeant Jeff LaFrance with the City Police Department tells CHSJ News, he won't have the final numbers until tomorrow.
