Monday’s snowstorm left one driver’s wallet a little lighter.
The Central Saanich Police Service took to Twitter on Tuesday, Dec. 22, to remind drivers that even though the snow had stopped falling, it still needed to be cleared completely from vehicles before drivers hit the roads.
PSA – please note that you are required to clear the snow from your vehicle before taking to the roads. In this instance, a foot and a half of snow cost this driver $173 for insecure load. #csaan #yyjtraffic pic.twitter.com/NC7iD9Boom
