    OPP Conduct Commercial Vehicle Checks Today in Midland

    Date:

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    (MIDLAND, ON)- Members of the Southern Georgian Bay Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) along with members of the OPP Central Region Traffic Incident Management Enforcement (TIME) team conducted a day of commercial vehicle enforcement along Heritage Drive in Midland today.

    Officers checked over 20 vehicles resulting in two vehicles being removed from the roadway for safety violations. Twelve warnings were issued to drivers for safety and paperwork infractions, along with a number of Provincial Offences were handed out to drivers and vehicle owners.

    In the interest of improving road safety, educating the public about safe driving, commercial vehicle operation and maintenance, boating and ORV practices with our community safety partners is a priority, if you see a possible impaired operator on our roadways, waterways or trails please “Make the Call” and dial 911 as impaired driving never ends wellplease make a plan to get home safely.

    Sharing is SO MUCH APPRECIATED!

    The Scoop Georgian Bay is an upbeat, community-driven online talk show that highlights the people, businesses, and initiatives shaping our region.
