"If you are old enough to buy liquor then you are old enough to understand the consequences of driving while impaired. Make alternative arrangements to get home safely without putting yourself and the motorists around you in jeopardy," Cpl. Jennifer Cooper said.
"Police will continue to be on patrol for impaired drivers in our community throughout the summer months. We encourage everyone to enjoy their summer responsibly."
