Ontario Provincial Police mandate alcohol screenings during all traffic stops in GTA under Mandatory Alcohol Screening initiative to address a 30% increase in impaired driving incidents.
The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have implemented mandatory alcohol screenings during every traffic stop in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) under the Mandatory Alcohol Screening (MAS) initiative. This move aims to reduce the 30% increase in impaired driving collisions and charges compared to the previous five-year average. Drivers must now provide a breath sample upon request from a police officer, regardless of suspicion, or face charges under Canada's MAS law.
