A man who tested positive for 3 types of drugs whilst driving has been banned from driving for 12 months.

The drugs he failed his test on were cocaine, ketamine and Benzoylecgonine.

The driver, Rhys Cox came to the attention of the police as he was seen to be driving erratically.

When stopped, police noted that his pupils seemed dilated and it was at that stage they decided to carry out the roadside drug test.

He was transported to the police station where blood samples were taken to ascertain the types of drugs and amounts within his system.

Cox appeared at Swindon Magistrates Court and pleaded guilty to the drug driving matters put before him.

Along with the 12 months driving ban, Cox was also fined £150 and ordered to pay court costs of £85.
