Nope, I heard that Perth had sent up a few Police to do this along the Brand Highway until the end of Christmas. I have traveled to Perth many times and not seen anything.

I reckon that one should expect it when they least expect it.

Hell Yea. I got tested 4 times when I was at leavers, with all being negative. They had a huge road block a few Ks south of Busselton and they were testing heaps of people.

Well I was DD most of the time and I got drug and alcohol tested everytime cause we had everyone in the car. We even had our car searched for drugs when we parked at the Leavers only area!

accompanied with the RBT if suspected you would have to sit a RDT

So they only do one or the other ? If an officer suspects someones dui and there doing a rdt can they do a rbt ? or is it only a rdt truck

I was under the impression that it was also to be a random thing just like RBT`s , but after asking around a bit it seems not many people have faced a test, be it random or under suspicion. Perhaps the system is still ramping up.
