Otherwise known as booze busses? They pull you over and check your breath and if the unit shows alcohol you go to the bus for an evidential breath test to see if you are over the limit.

Also used as revenue gathering spots for things such as, rego, wof, license, also used to find drugs, wp,s, wta,s ect.......But if ya aint breaking the law, you got nothing to worry about.:msn-wink:

I got a "Parking Infringement Notice" this week for having no wof on the car

...on a street where there are no parking limitations whatsoever....


...almost as if they were actively looking for additional revenue from missing wofs or regos!! :gob: I'm shocked!

Not often I drive around with a nuke in the boot, but I do have fertilizer in there at times, and some diesel.:devil2:

I've been through a few, never been asked to do a drug test. I'd pass it no problem though, I don't take illegal drugs. :Police:

For some reason I thought this thread would involve a road trip and girls. This thread leaves me feeling cheated.

Driving while impaired by prescription medication is also illegal Ed.

And I was under the impression you thought you knew everything.

Bit late to the party here, but for all you "grown ups" out there please bear in mind that the alcohol tolerance for anyone under 20 is ZERO which is a big deal for students who are doing the right thing and driving/riding home the morning after and still manage to get picked up on 0.000001 mg/l of alcohol

see here http://www.transport.govt.nz/news/newsevents/ZeroBACdriversunder20/
