A 57-year-old man from Caledon now faces four charges, including operation while impaired by alcohol, operation while prohibited, and failure to comply with a probation order.

Police say he is scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in Brampton, Ontario, on Friday. 

Police remind the public that operating any motorized vehicle while impaired, including lawn tractors and farm equipment, causes dangers to the driver and the public.
