"Upon initiating a traffic stop, officers confirmed the male driver to be suspended for Remedial and Unpaid fines," officers stated in a release.

A 39-year-old Oro-Medonte man faces the following charges:
- HTA 53(1) Adult Driving while under suspension X 2
- TTA 29(2) Adult Possess unmarked Cigarettes
- TTA 29(1) Adult Possess unmarked cigarettes for sale
He is scheduled for an appearance in Orillia court, and his vehicle was impounded for 45 days.
