Kenora OPP are reminding the public that new drinking and driving legislation takes effect today.
Drivers found with a blood alcohol level between point-0-5 and point 0-8 will lose their licence for three days.
A second offence brings a seven-day licence suspension and a visit to an alcohol education program.
Three-time offenders lose their licence for 30 days and their vehicle will be fitted with an ignition interlock.
The licence suspensions cannot be appealed.
