Driving A Vehicle With Hood Open Results In Several Charges On Hwy. 11 At Allensville Road

The Huntsville Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (O.P.P.) has arrested and charged a female driver after reports she was driving southbound on Highway 11 with an obstructed windshield.

On October 19, 2026, at 12:35 p.m., the Huntsville O.P.P. located a vehicle travelling well below the posted speed limit southbound on Highway 11 near Allensville Road. The vehicle was observed to have its hood open which covered the entire windshield, while the vehicle was travelling on the highway.

Due to the danger posed by the driver operating the vehicle in this manner, officers made gentle contact with the vehicle and slowly directed the vehicle safely onto the southbound shoulder.
