SGI has pointed out that there will be an increase in police presence over the holidays ensuring no one is driving impaired.

Meanwhile, Christmas Eve Day, Rosthern RCMP pulled over a car on Highway 12 near Hepburn for travelling 214 kilometres an hour in a 100 kilometre an hour zone. The driver received a $1,515 fine and a 7 day impound of their vehicle.

SGI also points out Saskatchewan is about a month away from having fines increase significantly for distracted driving. Spokesman Tyler McMurchy notes that would also be right around the time you might be paying Christmas credit card bills so you wouldn’t want an expensive ticket at the same time.
