Quinte West OPP stopped more than 275 vehicles during RIDE programs throughout the weekend.

Officers say four roadside breath tests were conducted but all drivers passed.

Drivers here are reminded if they register a BAC from .05 to .08, known as the “warn range”, they will receive an immediate driver’s licence suspension.

For a first occurrence, drivers will be suspended from driving for three days.

For a second occurrence in a five-year period, the licence will be immediately suspended for seven days and drivers must undergo a remedial alcohol-education program. For a third or subsequent time in a five year period, drivers will be immediately suspended for 30 days and must undergo a remedial alcohol-treatment program and have an ignition interlock condition placed on the licence for six months. If drivers choose not to install an ignition interlock device, they must not drive until the condition is removed from your licence.

If there is no one else available to drive and no safe place to park the vehicle, it will be towed at the driver’s expense.

In addition, anyone under the age of 21 with a full class drivers licence or anyone with a graduated licence is reminded that they are not permitted to have consumed any alcohol if they are going to be driving.

The Festive RIDE campaign will continue until January 2, 2016, with checkpoints being set up daily.
