OPP in Middlesex and Elgin County have laid over 70 charges in a Highway 401 aerial traffic blitz.

Between October 13th and 14th, OPP stopped 66 vehicles as part of an initiative that targets an increasing public compliance with safe driving measures.

A total of 72 charges were laid, 33 of those were for speeding, and 24 for tractor trailers following too closely.

Aggressive driving is one of the big “four” driving behaviours that leaf to road fatalities in Ontario.
