Lambton OPP say their festive R.I.D.E. program so far this year has resulted in 18 charges.
Eight people have been charged with impaired driving and ten others handed three-day licence suspensions in well over 150 checks.
Provincial police have R.I.D.E. checks throughout the year but the initiative is stepped up over the festive holiday season.
A suspected drunk driver was arrested at mid-afternoon in Plympton-Wyoming Wednesday after OPP responded to a complaint.
Police responded to a gas station in the area of Oil Heritage Rd. and London Line and charged a 55-year-old Sarnia man with impaired driving and having open liquor in a vehicle.
