VIDEO: Impaired driving law prompts response from police chief, lawyer
MEDICINE HAT, AB — Changes could be on the way for how roadside impairment tests are handled across the country.
Bill C-46 has passed third reading in the House of Commons, including a provision would allow for mandatory impaired driving tests during routine traffic stops even without suspicion of impaired driving from police.
Police chiefs are championing the move, but some lawyers say the law could end up being a violation of constitutional rights.
