West Kelowna RCMP are hoping someone witnessed a crash on the William Bennett Bridge on Sunday that ended with a Calgary man losing his driver's licence for 90 days.
Police say just after 10 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 16, a black pickup truck hit the barricades on the bridge and ended up going over an embankment, landing on its side.
An officer demanded a breath sample from the driver after detecting signs of impairment, according to an RCMP media release.
The driver, a 31-year-old Calgary man, was assessed by paramedics at the scene and “appeared relatively uninjured,” police say.
Along with the 90-day immediate roadside prohibition, his vehicle was towed and impounded.
