Repeat Offenders Lose Their Cars

Under Ontario's new drunk driving law, repeat offenders will lose more than their license - they will lose their car. The new law includes a forfeiture stipulation which allows the court system to require repeat offenders to relinquish their vehicles.
"Today, in South Porcupine near Timmins, Attorney General Chris Bentley handed over a vehicle to the Ontario Community Council on Impaired Driving and its member group Action Sudbury to use as they raise awareness about the dangers and consequences of drinking and driving."
