A hypothetical situation would be a person involved in an MVA. They leave the scene of the accident. They are later found at a local bar, and they've been seen drinking alcohol within two hours of being in that motor vehicle accident. There are people to testify as such. No charge can be laid for impaired driving. That is a problem, in my estimation. I would like to know if that issue is big enough that anybody here at this table would like to see something changed in the Criminal Code to allow an impaired driving charge to be made in that case.
