Guelph police have arrested a man for impaired driving after he reportedly handed an officer his debit card when asked for his driver's licence.
Officers were patrolling on Edinburgh around 2 a.m. Friday when a car drove by them at a high rate of speed and made a left turn without signalling, according to officials.
Police say they caught up, pulled the driver over, asked for his licence, and were instead handed a TD debit card.
The officers also reportedly noticed signs of impairment like slurred speech and bloodshot eyes, which led to him failing a roadside screening test and being arrested.
Police say he was tested back at the station and had more than the legal amount of alcohol in his system.
A 24-year-old Guelph man has been charged with impaired operation, had his licence suspended for three months, his vehicle impounded for a week, and will appear in court May 10.
