A recent police patrol blitz along Highway 6 has resulted in over a dozen charges and close to ten warnings.
Wellington County OPP officials say police focused their patrols on Highway 6 from Arthur to Mount Forest and on the Hanlon Expressway “to reduce intersection related collisions.”
The blitz ran from Jan. 10 to 20, with over 30 hours of patrol time by officers, and no intersection-related collisions were reported. The results of the patrols were:
– seven Highway Traffic Act warnings;
– one drug warning;
– eight speeding charges;
– two racing charges; and
– single charges for driving without insurance, distracted driving and failing to move over for an emergency vehicle.
