An Ohio roadway sign posted to stop impaired drivers did just that when an alleged impaired driver veered off the road, hit it and came to a stop, police said.

The Ohio State Highway Patrol (OSHP) said they received a call for a reckless driver on St. Patrick’s Day along State Route 32 in Batavia. When they arrived at the scene, they found a sedan had run over a sign that provided the number to report drug activity or impaired drivers.

The driver was subsequently arrested for operating a vehicle while impaired.

"On St. Patrick's Day, our Batavia Post received a call for a reckless vehicle on SR 32. Shortly thereafter, the vehicle crashed, striking our @OSHP drug activity/impaired driver sign. This motorist was arrested for OVI," the state patrol Southwest Ohio division tweeted.
