Sgt Will Ayres said: “Good team work by officers led to the arrest of this individual, who failed a roadside drugs test.
“Drug driving is completely unacceptable. We will continue to do everything we can to keep Wiltshire’s roads safe by targeting those who get behind the wheel of a car having taken illegal drugs.”
