A 26 year old man from Southwest Oxford has been charged with driving while impaired.

Officers found the silver Jeep SUV stopped in the middle of Pigram Line, with the driver slumped over in the driver's seat.
Police say they determined the man had in fact been drinking and he was placed under arrest and taken to the London Police detachment for breath tests.
He was released on a Promise to appear in the new year.
The OPP are looking for any information about a collision on Oxford Road 8 west of Washington in Blandford-Blenheim.
