A student on the way to a music festival admits to drinking a long neck beer while driving, and a watercraft pilot fails to get away with a switcheroo when the Water Police approach.

Police cannot understand why a P-plate driver insists that she was in the right to drive drunk, attempt to avoid a breath test and risk other road users' lives, allegedly because she needed to get sugar for her best friend.

A young P-plate driver has his licence suspended, and a motorcycle rider stopped for a defective taillight is found to have an outstanding arrest warrant. A father tests positive for drugs that he took the day before.
Episode 6
The annual Mardi Gras drink festival is a constant source of work for the RBT police. Truck drivers are tested at a way station and most prove to be clean. P-plate drivers do not seem to get the zero alcohol limit requirement.

Sometimes the RBT teams get into high speed pursuits with drivers attempting to flee a test. After over an hour of chasing one driver, the situation is getting critical, and needs to be brought to a close. Driving without headlights also features a dismal drink failure.
