In addition to a future court date in January 2025, the accused had their vehicle impounded for 45 days.

On November 23, 2025, at approximately 6:45 p.m., OPP received a traffic complaint regarding a suspected impaired driver on Dominion Street in the Municipality of Trent Hills. Officers located the vehicle, which had several child passengers, and initiated an impaired driving investigation. The driver was arrested and transported to a local detachment for further tests.

A 42-year-old female from Lakefield, has been charged with:

– Operation while impaired – alcohol and drugs

– Operation while impaired – blood alcohol concentration (80 plus)

– Driving while under suspension

The individual shall not be named to protect the identity of the young persons. The accused is due to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in Cobourg in January, 2025.

For each impaired driving charge, a 90-day Administrative Driver’s Licence Suspension (ADLS) and 7-day vehicle impoundment were imposed as per statute.

If you know or suspect that a driver is impaired by alcohol or drugs, call 9-1-1. In doing so, you may save a life. Whether you are impaired by alcohol or drugs, impaired is impaired and driving under the influence of either is a criminal offence. If you plan on drinking or consuming drugs, plan to not drive. Instead, arrange for a designated driver, take a taxi or public transit, or come up with another plan that takes impaired driving out of the picture.
