"Elderly man charged for Saanich accident
Vehicle driven into window of driver services office

Thursday, January 03, 2002

Vehicle slams into driver's testing office. The man was attempting to pass his driving re-examination when he lost control of his car.

"(The incident began) as he was reversing into a parking spot," explained Constable Marc Chateau of the Saanich RCMP. "I believe he hit the gas instead of the brake pedal at which time the car he was driving knocked back a door of the vehicle that was next to him. Then the car jumped the little sidewalk and broke the window on the motor vehicle branch."

The man has been charged with 'reverse when unsafe,’ which is a $98 fine under the Motor Vehicle Act.

The incident marked the third time the man failed his driving exam.

Two people sustained minor injuries as a result of the accident. "

The driver was assessed a five minute major penalty for boarding and a match misconduct for parking without a license, failing to stay within the lines, and interfering with the official duties of a bureaucrat. The match was delayed while the glass was replaced and a fresh ice surface was laid down.

Regards, Don
