A 53-year-old woman is without her licence and vehicle after she was found to be driving without valid insurance or registration.

On November 11, just after 3:15 p.m., officers from Harbour Breton conducting proactive traffic enforcement on Canada Drive stopped a vehicle with expired registration. The officer confirmed that the driver was also uninsured.

The woman’s licence was suspended, and the vehicle was seized by police roadside and impounded. She was issued tickets for the unregistered vehicle, failing to change her address with motor registration and driving without insurance.

Under the Highway Traffic Act, drivers who are caught operating a vehicle without valid insurance or registration can face significant penalties, including being issued fines, having their vehicle impounded or even having their license suspended. Proof of valid insurance and registration is required for every driver on the road. Keep your documents valid, up to date and in the vehicle with you when you’re behind the wheel!
