Three separate crashes led to charges for Caledon and Brampton drivers.

Caledon OPP investigated several motor vehicle collisions involving allegedly impaired drivers over the last days of 2022.

A vehicle hit a house on Alderbrook Court in Caledon just before noon on Dec. 30, said OPP in a press release. There were no injuries in the collision and the house was deemed to still be structurally sound.

Sharlene Brown, 37, from Caledon, was charged with refusing to comply with a demand for a breath sample.

The next day, Saturday, Dec. 31 around 6:55 a.m., police responded to a single vehicle collision near the intersection on Chinguacousy Road near Mayfield Road.

Brampton resident Divjot Brar, 21, faces charges of impaired operation of a motor vehicle, and operating a vehicle with over the legal limit of alcohol in the blood.

Later on Saturday evening, at approximately 10:45 p.m., police responded to another single vehicle collision near the intersection of Healey Road and Innis Lake Road.

The driver of the vehicle was injured in the collision and transported to hospital where officers continued the investigation.

Asfand Yar, 28, from Caledon, was charged with impaired operation of a motor vehicle.

All accused are scheduled to appear in Orangeville Provincial Court in March 2023.

Drivers charged with refusal to give a breath sample and operating a vehicle with over the legal limit of alcohol in the blood received an immediate 90-day driver’s license suspension and seven-day vehicle impoundment.

Caledon OPP thanked the witnesses who contacted the police. Taking the time to report impaired driving saves lives, police said.
