A ride for a man and his dog came to an abrupt end Sunday.
The 36-year-old was arrested and charged with impaired driving on Highway 8, after blowing nearly three times the legal limit.
Police were notified after receiving reports of a red car swerving across the road. Officers attempted to initiate a traffic stop, but the driver did not react to the emergency lights or siren.
RCMP did not confirm where the driver was pulled over, or where the driver was from.
The officers saw the man swerving between the two southbound lanes of the highway and hitting the shoulder several times.
