A Muskoka man has pleaded guilty to impaired driving after recording a blood-alcohol level nearly four times the legal limit.
Michael White appeared in a Bracebridge courtroom after admitting to operating a motor vehicle with more than 80 milligrams of alcohol per 100 millilitres of blood.
The court heard that on August 28, 2025, White was observed leaving a bar in Gravenhurst in an apparently intoxicated state. A concerned witness contacted police, who later stopped White’s vehicle.
Police administered a breathalyzer test, which produced readings of 314 milligrams of alcohol. The presiding justice described the readings as “incredibly high,” noting they were nearly quadruple the legal limit.
The court also heard that White has a prior impaired driving conviction from 2016.
White was sentenced to a $2,000 fine, an 18-month driving prohibition, and 18 months of probation.
