New provincial laws will have drunk drivers facing stiffer consequences.
If found driving with a blood alcohol level between 50 and 80 milligrams, you could face a seven day suspension of your licence, and over 600 dollars in re-reinstatement fees.
Drivers who blow over 80 milligrams will face a three month suspension, and if convicted, at least one-thousand dollars in court fees.
RCMP will start doing road checks right away under the new regulations.
