Provincial police say further checks revealed that the man was under a lifetime driving prohibition that had been in effect since 2002 and was under a Highway Traffic Act suspension for unpaid fines stemming from 2022.
The accused faces charges of impaired driving, operation while prohibited under the Criminal Code, driving while under suspension, failing to surrender a permit for the motor vehicle, driving a motor vehicle without a currently validated permit, and failing to surrender an insurance card.
He is scheduled to appear in Collingwood court at a later date to answer to the charges.
