Prince Albert police had to deal with three impaired drivers in what authorities are calling a busy weekend in the northern Saskatchewan city.
One was caught following a report impaired driver (RID) call late Saturday afternoon.
The caller said a vehicle travelling westbound on 28th Street towards the Lakewood development ran a four-way stop.

The driver then drove onto a bike trail, jumped a curb and just missed a light standard before coming to a stop, according to a witness.
Officers said they arrived to find the vehicle still running and a man passed out in the driver’s seat.
They were unable to wake him despite knocking on the window.
A woman was in the passenger seat with the window rolled down.
Officers said they shut off the vehicle and arrested the driver. A search turned up evidence of alcohol being consumed in the vehicle.
