Australian police explain how their MDT drug testing system works

Trent Moore, 37, said he had a joint last Wednesday night and was pulled over on a fishing trip in central Queensland with his French girlfriend Sandrine Fert, 36, on Monday. A random saliva swab test returned a 'low-range cannabis' reading and he was charged with drug driving - punishable by up to three months' jail. Unlike with alcohol, drivers are charged if any illegal trace of drugs is detected in their sample even if police don't believe them to be impaired on the road. 'It's not fair because even if you smoked five days before it can have such a big affect on your life. We didn't do anything wrong,' Ms Fert said.
