While conducting the investigation into the window tinting, the female driver was determined to not have a valid driver’s licence, and was prohibited from driving under the Motor Vehicle Act. She was issued an appearance notice for driving while prohibited and has a June 4 court date in 100 Mile.
Her vehicle was towed and impounded for seven days.
Detachment priorities
The 100 Mile RCMP are in the process of formulating the detachment priorities for the 2013/14 fiscal year.
Last year’s priorities included:
• Providing enhanced policing to the First Nations community.
• Reducing the abuse of drugs by targeting drug production and distribution charges.
• Reducing the abuse of alcohol through education.
• Contributing to safe roads by targeting traffic offences.
• Contributing to Safe Roads by targeting impaired drivers.
If there are members of the public who wish to comment on these or recommend other priorities, they are asked to submit their comments in writing to the RCMP detachment: NCO i/c RCMP; Box 37; 726 Alpine Ave.; 100 Mile House, B.C.; V0K 2E0.
