Our BC South Coast Highway Patrol officers worked hard to keep drivers safe this past weekend and they may have prevented some traffic fatalities by taking these four high-risk drivers off the road, said Corporal Melissa Jongema, BC Highway Patrol Media Relations Officer. If you witness any drivers excessively speeding, driving while impaired, or otherwise driving in an unsafe manner, please report them to your local police.
