00:08Two years ago, the roadside testing regime was widened to detect cocaine.
00:13Since then, police say there have been almost 1,500 positive readings.
00:19Cocaine was one of those drugs that I suppose in society was on the rise.
00:26So it came to a point where it was the legitimate decision to take to add it to the suite of tests.
