A 31 year old female from Sarnia has been arrested and charged with Impaired Driving.
On July 25th, 2017 shortly after 10:30pm, a Sarnia Police Officer on patrol witnessed a vehicle driving erratically in the area of Christina Street and Maxwell Street. The vehicle was observed making an aggressive turn while failing to stop at a red light. The officer continued to follow the vehicle as it weaved between lanes and veered into an oncoming lane. The driver continued north on Christina Street occupying two lanes of traffic before she was stopped by the officer.
At this time, the officer formed the opinion that the driver’s ability to operate a motor vehicle was impaired by alcohol and as a result she was placed under arrest accordingly. The driver was then transported to the Sarnia Police Service Headquarters where she provided samples of her breath that were no less than 1.5 times the legal limit.
As a result, Ashley Elizabeth Kelly was also charged with Having Over 80mg of Alcohol in 100ml of Blood and was later released on a Promise to Appear.
