IN a one-day police blitz on rural roads around Canberra on Tuesday (August 27) police caught two drivers under the influence of drugs and 33 motorists speeding.
Another driver failed a roadside breath test, which was conducted after he’d been pulled over for speeding at 126km/h in an 80km/h zone.
In total, 46 motorists were issued with infringements on rural ACT roads, which included the 33 speeding motorists and the two of nine drivers, who returned positive results from drug tests.
