I’ve been issued an Immediate Roadside Sanction for Impaired Driving. What happens now?

You will have been served a Notice of Administrative Penalty that will correspond to a specific fine amount, licence suspension, vehicle seizure and potential reinstatement conditions.

Depending on the severity and circumstances, you may also be criminally charged. People charged with impaired driving are usually demanded to provide evidentiary breath samples (alcohol) or toxicology (drugs) to support the charges.
