Upon speaking with the driver police detected a strong odour of alcohol emanating from their breath and was displaying other signs of impairment. The officer then made an Approved Screening Device (ASD) Demand; however, the driver refused to provide a suitable sample of the breath into the ASD.

Marley CALLOW (age 34) of Warkworth, Ontario, was arrested and charged with:

·      Failure or refusal to comply with demand

The OPP remains committed to enforcing impaired driving laws and educating road users about the dangers posed by motorists who drive while impaired by alcohol or drugs. Drivers need to remember that any amount of alcohol or drugs can impair one’s ability to drive. Do your part in keeping our roads safe by planning ahead.
