They are politicians by day and they keep the roads safe at night.

 

Political power couple Michelle and Lorenzo Berardinetti helped to pull a drunk driver off the road on Saturday night.

Around 6:30 p.m. Michelle (City councillor in Ward 35) was behind the wheel on Birchmount south of Eglinton. She saw a driver that was swerving all over the road and she got him to pull over and told him to stay there because the cops were coming.

 

She got back into her car to wait for the police.

 

When she thought the thought the driver might take off, Lorenzo (Liberal MPP for Scarborough Southwest) reached into the car and pulled out the keys.

 

Michelle told Josh Matlow on Newstalk 1010’s They City on Sunday that anyone in the same position would probably have done the same thing.
