Sheshatshiu RCMP seizes vehicle from one driver, tickets others during one-day traffic blitz
Police seized a vehicle during a traffic stop as part of a traffic enforcement initiative in the community on Friday. The owner was also ticketed after an investigation revealed that the vehicle was being operated without valid insurance.
On June 5, officers stopped passenger vehicles on roads throughout the community looking for impaired, distracted and aggressive drivers, speeding and seat belt use, and ensuring vehicles and drivers operate safely and with the appropriate documentation.
Just before 9:30 p.m., an officer stopped a vehicle with damaged windows on Shuasham Street. The operator – a 47-year-old man – was unable to provide insurance and registration documents, and further investigation revealed that the vehicle did not have proper insurance.
The vehicle was seized and impounded, and police issued a ticket under the Highway Traffic Act for operating without insurance.
Police says that none of the motorists stopped were driving while impaired
