PRINCE GEORGE — Two women have been charged with impaired driving following a incident last week on the 1600-block of Central Street East.
Prince George RCMP say it occurred at 12 p.m. on October 29, when a woman struck a parked car.
“Witnesses reported the parked vehicle and the suspect vehicle were stuck together at the bumpers,” says Prince George RCMP Cpl. Jennifer Cooper. “Police officers arrived at the location and found two women in a small, black SUV, which was stuck to a pickup truck. Witnesses stated that after the first collision, the driver and passenger switched spots in the vehicle. When the now-driver attempted to leave the parking lot, she ended up striking the same parked car as the original driver as well as a witness who was near the parked vehicle.”
Cooper says the two women were each arrested for Impaired Operation of a motor vehicle and transported to the Prince George RCMP Detachment to provide breath samples as part of the investigation. Both women registered over the legal limit and were served with 24-hour driving prohibitions, as well as administrative 90-day driving prohibitions and will appear in court at a future date.
