Another busy weekend has come and gone for Hunstville OPP, which caught two impaired drivers during the penultimate weekend of September.
"Officers of the Huntsville Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police are always looking for criminal driving behaviour," the detachment said in a news release.
Both accused drivers were stopped and charged in Huntsville, and will eventually appear in a Bracebridge court in October.
