A Prince Edward Island man has been arrested after police say he was caught driving more than two times the legal limit.
The RCMP responded to a report of a single-vehicle crash around 6:20 p.m. Thursday in Stratford.
Police say an SUV struck the curb of a roundabout and was stopped in the middle of the road.
No one was injured.
The driver, a 41-year-old man from DeSable, was arrested for impaired driving.
Police say he provided breath samples measuring two-and-a-half times the legal limit.
He will appear in court in early August.
The P.E.I. RCMP says another impaired driver, a 43-year-old man from New Brunswick, was also caught in Cavendish on Thursday.
