Two drivers arrested on Hwy 125 on same night

Two people have been charged after separate driving incidents in the CBRM.

On the evening of September 16th on Hwy 125 in Upper North Sydney, an RCMP officer arrested a 52-year-old Alder Point man who was prohibited from driving in Canada due to a previous impaired driving conviction.

Roughly two hours later, the officer stopped a vehicle after it made a sudden sharp turn into the dirt and onto the exit ramp at Point Edward.

A 46-year-old Beaver Cove man was arrested and provided breath samples five times the legal limit.

Both drivers will appear in Sydney Provincial Court in November.
