Officers noticed the driver appeared impaired and took him to the hospital as a precaution.

The driver faces two counts related to impaired driving and one of dangerous operation of a motor vehicle.

The accused is expected to appear at the Ontario Court of Justice in Windsor on October 1.

His license has been suspended for 90 days and his vehicle was impounded for a week.
