OTTAWA -A Lanark County OPP officer did a double take on Sunday when he saw what looked like a child slowly driving toward him on County Road 1, just south of Perth. After pulling the car over, the officer found a nine-year-old girl driving the car home for her mother, who was in the passenger seat. The woman was concerned that she was unable to drive because she'd been drinking at a party. It was just after 10 p. m. The 35 -year -old Drummond North Elmsley Township woman was charged with careless driving. Her name was not released. Perth is 60 kilometres west of Ottawa.
