Wellington Ontario Provincial Police can add, don’t drink, drive and bribe.
They said officers responded to a call about a vehicle in a ditch on Brock Road in Puslinch Township, around 6:45, Tuesday night.
Officers said the driver seemed to be impaired, and they asked for a breath sample.
But the driver not only refused, but also tried to bribe one of the officers, police said.
An OPP spokesperson tells 570 NewsRadio they can’t reveal what the bribe offer was, as it counts as evidence coming before the court.
The 65-year-old driver from Puslinch was arrested and charged with bribery of officers and failure or refusal to comply with demand.
His vehicle was impounded for seven days, and his driver’s licence suspended for 90 days.
