On August 11, 2019 members of the Wellington County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) were conducting a Reduce Impaired Driving Everywhere (R.I.D.E.) check on Arkell Road near Guelph. At approximately 4:30 p.m. the driver of a grey sedan entered the R.I.D.E. check.

While speaking with the driver, officers formed the opinion that the driver was under the influence of alcohol. A Roadside Screening test was conducted which resulted in a fail. The driver was arrested and brought to a local OPP operations centre for further testing.
