  • Impaired Abbotsford driver makes their child blow into the ignition interlock system

Police in Abbotsford say a driver admitted to making their child blow into the ignition interlock system meant to keep impaired drivers from getting behind the wheel.

Const. Art Stele says police stopped the driver Wednesday night, believing they were impaired, and a roadside breath test came back “well over the limit.”

Police say they impounded the car and served the driver with a 90-day driving prohibition.

They’ve also informed the Ministry of Children and Family Development.
