RCMP also stopped an impaired driver in a school zone in Warfield on the Scholfield Highway earlier this spring. A crossing guard also prevented a 6-year-old girl from getting hit while in a crosswalk in February near JL Webster. According to police, the vehicle was travelling the correct speed but failed to stop at the crossing guard’s direction. Enforcement was stepped up as a result.
