LOWER SACKVILLE: A 44-year-old Lower Sackville woman has been arrested for impaired driving following a driving complaint in Lower Sackville.
On July 26, at approximately 6:20 p.m., officers responded to a report of a possible impaired driver after a Toyota Rav4 was seen driving over a sidewalk and parking the vehicle blocking a driveway.
When confronted by neighbours, the driver moved the vehicle into her own driveway.
Officers spoke with the driver and observed signs of impairment.
A roadside breath sample was obtained, which resulted in a fail.
