HALIFAX --
A 24-year-old man has been charged with impaired driving, after police stopped a vehicle with a fake motor vehicle inspection sticker in Nova Scotia’s Annapolis Valley on Monday night.
Nova Scotia RCMP says at approximately 10:15 a.m. on May 31, officers with Annapolis Valley Traffic Services were on patrol in a subdue police vehicle, when they noticed a vehicle that did not appear to be road worthy with a fake inspection sticker leaving a liquor store.
Police say an officer conducted a traffic stop and detected signs of alcohol impairment from the driver.
The driver was arrested after providing a breath sample and failing the Roadside Screening Device. Police say the readings were 150 mg% and 140 mg%, almost twice the legal limit.
