    Citizen Calls in Impaired Driving, Charges laid by Collingwood OPP

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    (COLLINGWOOD, ON) – On February 05, 2025, a citizen reported a possible impaired driver to the Ontario Provincial Police. The incident happened in the East end of the Town of Collingwood around 4:00 pm. The driver, it was reported, was in a Ford Escape driving with the hatch open and had committed several traffic violations.

    An officer of the Collingwood OPP responded and found the vehicle halfway into a snowbank at Beachwood Road and Bellholme Lane. Further investigation led to the officer arresting the female driver for impaired driving.

    55-year-old Rhonda Norlander of Wasaga Beach, ON has been charged with:

    ·        Failure or Refusal to comply with Demand (Criminal Code)

    ·        Having care or control of vehicle with cannabis readily available (Cannabis Control Act)

    ·        Fail to Yield to Traffic (Highway Traffic Act)

    The motor vehicle was impounded for 7 days, and the accused is set to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in Collingwood on February 18th, 2025

    Members of the Collingwood & Blue Mountains OPP remain committed to taking alcohol/drug-impaired drivers off our roads through enforcement and public education. 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.
