NIAGARA FALLS – Police conducting a speed enforcement blitz in Niagara Falls Wednesday morning caught a pair of drivers with suspended licences, and charged a speeding G1 driver who did not have the required accompanying licenced driver with her and whose licence had been suspended due to unpaid fines – for the same pair of offences.
Following complaints of excessive speed, police were set up on McLeod Road. During the two-hour project, officers issued 11 provincial offence notices, with two drivers being charged with driving while under suspension.
Police say a female driver stopped for speeding was found to have a G1 licence and was not accompanied by a licenced driver as required. Further investigation revealed she also had her licence suspended as the result of unpaid fines for tickets she received last year for the exact set of offences – speeding and driving without an accompanying licenced driver.
She was charged with driving under suspension and her vehicle was impounded for 7 days.
The Niagara Regional Police encourage members of the public to contact its traffic hotline at 905-688-4111, ext. 5555 with traffic concerns.
