A west Quebec woman was not wearing any clothes when she was pulled over and arrested last week for testing more than three times the legal limit of alcohol.
The MRC des Collines-de-l’Outaouais pulled the 52-year-old woman over on McCrank Road in La Peche, Que., June 20 at about 10:30 p.m.
Police had intercepted her vehicle after someone called to complain about someone driving erratically.
She was driving naked and under the influence of alcohol, police said. The woman refused to leave her vehicle, prompting police to cut her seat belt to get her out of the vehicle, police said.
Police said she was dressed with clothes once at the police station.
She is expected to appear in court on Sept. 19 on charges of impaired driving, refusal to submit to a breathalyzer and obstruction.
