Man on ice tries to tow enormous water tank with one strap
A MAN returned a positive drug test for methamphetamine after police caught him towing a large rainwater tank on a trailer that was secured to his car with just a single strap.
Police spotted the driver just before 5.30pm this afternoon at Penfield Gardens towing the rainwater tank along Robert Road.
Worried the tiny trailer was dangerously overloaded and not properly restrained, police pulled over the 28-year-old Elizabeth Park man and found he had a disqualified licence and his car was unregistered.

Police will allege the trailer had no numberplate, no indicators, brake lights or tail lights visible.
A short strap was used to keep the hitch and towbar tied together, and one of the tyres on the trailer was blown and on its rim.

The man was reported for various traffic offences including drive disqualified and unregistered, and his car has been impounded for 28 days.
The man's positive drug result will be sent to Forensic Science SA for further testing.
He will appear in court at a later date.
