Provincial Police say they have charged 69 motorists in northwestern Ontario with impaired driving during this season’s Festive RIDE campaign

The stepped-up enforcement began at the end of November and will conclude on Friday.

OPP also found another eight motorists who registered in the warn range at RIDE checks.

This comes with a 3-day licence suspension and a $250 fine for first offenders.

OPP add that more than 3,200 hours have been committed to the campaign in its first three weeks.
