Killaloe OPP lay numerous driving charges

Killaloe OPP had a busy Thanksgiving weekend, as it laid more than 30 charges through Operation Impact, a program to stop bad drivers.

Most were speeding charges, but there was one stunt driving charge and one distracted driving charge.

Police also issued some careless driving charges, related to collisions in Algonquin Park.

A three-vehicle smash up happened at 1:30 p.m. on the holiday Monday on Highway 60, near Tea Lake campground. One vehicle hit the rear of another, causing it to move forward and hit another. 

A 29-year-old SUV driver from Woodbridge was charged with careless driving, but no injuries were reported.  

Also, a Toronto driver was charged with careless driving, after losing control and hitting a tree on Centennial Ridges Road in Algonquin Park. That collision happened at 8 p.m. Friday night. The vehicle was towed, but there were no injuries.

Before Thanksgiving, there was another crash, this one involving a motorcycle on Schutt Road in Brudenell, Lyndoch and Raglan at about 2:30 p.m. last Thursday.

The 53-year-old rider was taken to hospital with non life-threatening injuries. 

Investigations into the crashes are ongoing and anyone with information can call Killaloe OPP.
