Two teens are in hot water after getting pulled over on Highway 11 on Saturday at around 3 a.m.
According to a media release from the Bracebridge OPP, a 16-year-old from Bracebridge was charged with "an impaired driving-related offence" after being stopped in a "proactive patrol" by officers on Highway 11 south near Cedar Lane.
The passenger, an 18-year-old Burk's Falls man, was charged with a Liquor Licence and Control Act offence for "consuming liquor under 19 years of age."
The driver will appear in Bracebridge court on April 3, 2025 to answer to his charge.
A criminal charge of refusal or failure to comply with a demand in relation to an impaired driving investigation carries the same consequences as an impaired driving/over 80 charge in Ontario. The accused has had their driver's licence suspended for 90 days and their vehicle impounded for seven days.
