Road rage driver on drug charges
A 31-year-old Watson man, who was allegedly tailgating cars with high beams on and ramming them when they had stopped at traffic lights last night was charged with traffic and drug offences.
Police said between 10.30pm and 11.30pm, ACT Policing Operations received several calls from members of the public reporting a blue Ford Falcon station wagon ramming into other motorists.
This included reports of the Ford Falcon tailgating at least four separate cars with its high beams on and ramming into these cars when they stopped at traffic lights.
About 11.45pm, police located the Ford Falcon driving on Cotter Road. A search of the man and his car resulted in police seizing about 500 grams of cannabis, 21 pills suspected to be MDMA and about 7.2 grams of white powder, suspected to be heroin.
The man was charged with two counts of furious, reckless or dangerous driving and three counts of trafficking a controlled substance.
He will face the ACT Magistrates Court this morning.
