Manitoba improves measures to curb impaired driving
Manitoba Attorney General Roland Penner announced new rules to deter drunken driving. A second offence within two years now carries a 14 day minimum sentence, with a third strike within two years triggering at least three months in prison. A committee chaired by J D Montgomery will study enforcement, prevention, and potential mini breathalyzers at licensed premises, while considering a first offender referral program akin to the Alcoholism Foundation model. The panel includes Winnipeg police officers, industry and health representatives, and crime prevention experts.
