Impaired driver was hauling ATV trailer
Court hears Edwin Reginald Waugh, 47, of Saint John, had elevated blood-alcohol level when witness reported seeing him weaving in traffic in Fredericton last fall, court hears
A Saint John man driving a truck and hauling an all-terrain vehicle on a trailer was all over the road in Fredericton last fall, court heard Tuesday, leading police to discover he was under the influence.
Edwin Reginald Waugh, 47, of Westfield Road in the port city, pleaded guilty Tuesday in Fredericton provincial court to having an elevated blood-alcohol level within two hours of driving, and the case proceeded directly to sentencing.
Crown prosecutor Rodney Jordan said that at about 8:10 p.m. on Sept. 8, the Fredericton Police Force received a call from a motorist about a possible impaired driver.
