In a shocking turn of events, a dump truck driver in British Columbia was fired on the spot following a harrowing rollover crash in Deroche. The incident, which has raised eyebrows across the province, is a stark reminder of the dangers of driving under the influence.

The 44-year-old driver from Abbotsford lost control of his vehicle, tumbling it into a ditch while allegedly impaired. Eyewitnesses reported the dramatic scene, prompting the BC Highway Patrol to rush to the crash site.

Upon arrival, authorities discovered more than just an overturned truck. The driver, who was not injured in the spill, was found with open liquor in the cab. After a breathalyzer test yielded a 'fail' reading, the gravity of the situation intensified.

As a result of his reckless actions, the driver faces a slew of penalties: a staggering 90-day immediate roadside prohibition from driving, a seizure of his driver’s license, and tickets for both driving without due care and possessing open liquor in a motor vehicle. Additionally, his employer’s dump truck is set to be impounded for 30 days.

Perhaps the most shocking twist? As law enforcement conducted their investigation, the driver’s supervisor showed up and promptly terminated his employment on the scene—making it clear that such behavior wouldn't be tolerated.

This incident serves as a stern warning about the serious repercussions of impaired driving, a risk that can lead not only to job loss but also significant legal consequences. Stay safe, and think twice before getting behind the wheel!
