A 41-year-old Bradford woman has been charged with impaired driving after her vehicle struck a parked car on Northgate Drive Saturday afternoon.
Once on scene, police determined that the vehicle struck a parked car in a driveway and then travelled onto the front lawn of a home.
Thankfully, no one was injured.
Mary Reed whose lawn was affected says the crash caused a lot of mess, with oil and debris all over the lawn and driveway.
"She hit a black SUV in my neighbour's driveway, went across her lawn, hit a big rock then flipped a couple of times over my driveway," she said.
The SUV then spun and landed on her lawn with oil and debris left everywhere.
"If anyone was out on the driveway or even cleaning the yard it would have been horrific," she said.
As a result of an investigation, a 41-year-old Bradford woman was charged with Operation While Impaired and Operation While Impaired - Excess Blood Alcohol. Her licence was suspended for 90 days and her vehicle impounded for seven days.
If you drink or consume drugs, plan not to drive. Instead, arrange for a designated driver, arrange for a ride service, take public transit or come up with another plan that takes impaired driving out of the picture. We are conducting enhanced RIDE programs for the holiday season. If you suspect someone is driving while impaired by alcohol or drugs, it is important to call 911 to report it.
