Second truck driver from same company fined for impaired driving in Burnaby
As a result, the driver was banned from driving for 90 days, the truck was impounded for 30 days, and he was issued three violation tickets totalling $1,300.

A second driver from the same trucking company has been hit with fines again after being pulled over for impaired driving.
Burnaby RCMP said one of its commercial vehicle enforcement officers was driving behind a loaded dump truck on July 3 when the officer watched the truck swerve side to side and cross the centre line while southbound on Boundary Road. At one point, the truck hit a raised centre median.
The officer then pulled over the truck on Marine Way near Roseberry Avenue and the driver was asked to take a sobriety test but failed. As a result, the driver was banned from driving for 90 days, the truck was impounded for 30 days and he was issued three violation tickets totalling $1,300.
According to police, it’s not the first time the trucking company has faced this issue.
Less than two months ago, another driver with the same company was pulled over just a couple hundred metres up the road, and also failed a sobriety test. That driver was also hit with the exact same penalties.
“This is becoming too much of a regular occurrence in the Lower Mainland,” said Const. Kevin Connolly of the Burnaby RCMP’s traffic unit.
Connolly said police “can’t share the company’s name” but that cops had forwarded details of the latest incident and the previous incident to the Transportation Ministry for investigation. Commercial trucking companies are regulated under the ministry.

As a result, the driver was banned from driving for 90 days and he was issued three violation tickets totalling $1,300.

A big thank you to the for installing Boating 911 signs at Cates Park and Deep Cove!
These signs help ensure that boaters know who to call in case of an emergency on the water. Clear and accessible information can make all the difference when every second counts. We appreciate the City’s commitment to boating safety and supporting public awareness initiatives.

MADD Metro Vancouver volunteers were proud to support the North Vancouver RCMP Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue and other road safety partners in reminding boaters to stay safe and sober on the water.
Volunteers interacted with the public, shared safe boating tips, and helped raise awareness about the importance of boating sober and ensuring vessels are equipped with the required safety gear. It was a great day of community engagement and collaboration to promote safe and responsible boating.
