Man arrested for drug driving after BMW was ‘driven dangerously’ on A55

A man has been arrested on suspicion of drug driving after a BMW was seen being driven dangerously on the A55. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌​​​

Police stopped the car on the eastbound carriageway of the A55 near St Asaph at around 10am this morning. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌​​​

It came after a member of the public called 999 to raise concerns about how the vehicle was being driven. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌​​​

In a post on Facebook, officers from North Wales Police’s roads policing unit said: “The driver was positive for cannabis at the roadside so was arrested on suspicion of drug driving and taken to custody. ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌​​​

“The 40-year-old man from Warrington has since been released under investigation and now has to await the results of further tests.” ‌​‌‌​​​‌‍‌​‌​‌​​​
