Police are reporting fewer crashes related to alcohol on provincial roads this holiday long weekend.
But they say it's too early to determine whether Ontario's new drinking and driving penalties are playing a role in the downturn.
Since May 1 there's been at least 6-hundred people given three-day suspensions for driving while in the warn range.
Previously, motorists only received a 12-hour licence suspension for driving with a blood alcohol level between 0.05 and 0.08.
