In two hours, two people were charged with impaired driving charges in the Collingwood area.

The first one came along on Saturday night at approximately 10:30 p.m. when an officer observed a vehicle on First Street in Collingwood driving with no lights. The vehicle was stopped, and he determined the driver was under the influence of alcohol.

This led to the 30-year-old driver from Collingwood being charged with impaired driving charges. He has a court date on April 25.

The second one occurred at 12:06 a.m. when an officer watched a vehicle fail to stop at a stop sign at Louisa Street and Elma Street in Thornbury. Police determined the driver was under the influence of alcohol.

As a result, the 28-year-old driver from Meaford was charged with impaired offences and is to appear at the Ontario Court of Justice in Owen Sound on April 20.
