4 March, 2021 | Local

POLICE caught a motorist who was allegedly driving while under the influence of cocaine and cannabis.

Road policing officers stopped a vehicle on Inverkip Road, Greenock at 9pm yesterday (Wednesday).

The 23-year-old allegedly failed the roadside drug screening test and was charged.

Area Commander Chief Inspector Paul Cameron said: “This is an excellent example of the support we receive from Police Scotland’s Road Policing Unit here in Inverclyde.

“It is completely unacceptable to drive a motor vehicle whilst under the influence of controlled drugs.

“This arrest should serve as a message to those who drive whilst under the influence of alcohol or drugs to think again.”
