Police in central P.E.I. laid more than 100 charges in two days this week as they nabbed motorists for aggressive driving and faulty paperwork.

Queens District RCMP and Provincial Highway Traffic Enforcement members laid 70 charges Monday for aggressive driving, driving while suspended and driving without insurance.

Road checks included speed traps on Highway 2 at Tracadie Cross, Highway 1 at Cornwall and on the Bunbury Road at Stratford.

"We continue to see some very significant speeds and this morning black ice was present in some areas on the roadway," Cpl. Chris Gunn of Queens District Traffic Services said in a statement. "We're taking speeding and aggressive driving seriously. There were no warnings issued this morning."

Then, on Tuesday, Charlottetown police and P.E.I. Highway Safety conducted road checks throughout the city, resulting in 40 charges under the Highway Traffic Act.

The problems included unlicensed drivers, uninsured vehicles, expired registrations and expired inspections.

Police promised road checks would continue throughout the week.

In related news, police apprehended two impaired drivers over the weekend — a 41-year-old man caught at a checkpoint in Oyster Bed on Saturday, and a 25-year-old man stopped on Highway 1 in Cornwall on Sunday.

Both drivers were well over the legal limit, police say.
