ACT Police record staggering positive rate on roadside drug tests

Conducted on Athllon Drive in Greenway on July 22, the operation included drug and alcohol tests, as well as vehicle inspections. Of the 12 initial drug screenings, two drivers were arrested for illicit substances. Further analysis is needed for the samples, and repeat offenders will face court.
