Around 7:00 pm Friday night the RNC responded to a two vehicle collision on The Conception Bay South Highway.
The crash was caused after a vehicle made an illegal left turn causing the collision.
Officers spoke to the driver making the left turn and he was then detained to do a breathalyzer.
The 52 year old male driver was charged with impaired driving and issued a summary offence ticket for having open liquor in the vehicle. The driver was two times the legal limit while driving.
The man was released to appear in court at a later date.
