To deter the danger of overindulgence, Laval Police have already conducted three roadblocks in different parts of the city to screen drivers for drug and excessive alcohol consumption.<\/p>\n

Six of the 242 drivers they stopped during a Dec. 7 roadblock, were charged with infractions: one for driving under the influence; four for cannabis possession and one for assaulting a police officer.<\/p>\n

Laval drivers proved more prudent during another, Dec. 12, sweep. Of 602 drivers screened during the roadblock, none were cited with any offence.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe intend to continue [conducting similar roadblocks] throughout the holiday period,\u201d said Sgt. Jean. \u201cSome of them will be conducted on bridges linking Laval with Montreal and the North Shore, in cooperation with neighbouring police forces.\u201d<\/p>\n

Laval Police have also heightened patrols in and around popular malls like Centre Laval, Carrefour Laval and Gal\u00e9ries Laval.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to ensure that traffic remains as fluid as possible,\u201d explained Sgt. Jean, \u201cand respect handicapped parking spaces and keep clear of emergency lanes reserved for fire trucks and ambulances. People also shouldn\u2019t leave presents in their cars to tempt would-be thieves. Inside, we\u2019ll be working to prevent armed robberies and shoplifting.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMerchants need to remain vigilant, particularly if they make cash deposits late at night,\u201d he added. \u201cWe\u2019ll be more visible so if anyone has any questions or problems, they should approach one of the officers on foot or\u2014if weather permits\u2014bicycle patrols at the malls.\u201d<\/p>\n
