OPP On Full Patrol For Long Weekend

It may seem hard to believe, but the last long weekend of the Summer has arrived.

Provincial Police will be out in full force ensuring everyone has a safe Civic Day holiday.

Eighty-four per cent of this year’s traffic-related deaths have been preventable and the result of poor or careless driving behaviours and actions.

As of July 26, 138 people have died in 131 fatal motor vehicle collisions on OPP-patrolled roads.

Fifty-seven per cent of road fatalities involved either alcohol or drugs, speed, driver inattention or not wearing a seat belt.
