Road checks will be in place starting at 7 p.m. at Highway 1 exits from Chilliwack all the way to West Vancouver.More than 150K people in Ontario have driven high on edibles in last 3 months, survey suggests
The highway road checks for Saturday evening have been dubbed “Light up the Highway.” Police said drivers should expect some delays along Highway 1 in the Lower Mainland. The two organizations said the event is in conjunction with National Impaired Driving Enforcement Day, where road checks are set up across the country.
“Impaired driving is completely preventable if drivers make good decisions before and after consuming alcohol and/or drugs,’ said Chief Superintendent Holly Turton.“It’s imperative that drivers plan ahead for their safe return trip before they start consuming impairing substances. In order to drive this message home, the public can expect to see an increased police presence and enforcement of impaired driving throughout the month of December.
