A 95-year-old suspect from West Nipissing has been charged with impaired driving after Ontario Provincial Police responded to a traffic hazard Aug. 30.
The incident took place around 12:58 a.m. when the scooter was blocking the roadway on Pine Street.
“Police located a low-speed mobile scooter stationary in the middle of the road,” the OPP said in a news release Tuesday.

The suspect has been charged with impaired driving and was released with a court date of Oct. 3 in North Bay.
The suspect’s driver’s licence was suspended for 90 days.
“The OPP would like to remind the public that if you see a possible impaired driver on our roadways, waterways, or trails … dial 911 as impaired driving never ends well,” police said.
