Impaired driving laws don’t only apply to cars and trucks.

It’s a lesson, police say, that a Brant County man learned the hard way last week.

OPP officers were patrolling Colborne Street West last Friday night when a riding lawnmower attracted their attention.

The lawnmower was pulled over, and police allegedly discovered that its driver had been drinking alcohol.

A 55-year-old man is charged with driving with more than 80 mg of alcohol in his blood.
