[@peter4210]

@Little Foot The way they use the machine, It could get contaminated frequently giving false positive. The Machine cannot be carried into the field and field test are not as sensitive as the machines. Blood Test and Urine test are useful to determine with 100% that the person has consumed it but those machines are just there to tell them that the drug is indeed present. Strong hits are clear indicators of particles but again, a machine can get contaminated itself or even the glove the officer use to swab. With a Cocaine Epidemic in the UK, they must take any hit as a possibility.

You’ll find out its way more then 6 percent.

[@tannercox4537]

JS they take peoples cigarettes and money without no real investigation or anything. I’m guessing the UK doesn’t have this but in America it’s called “cop discretion” where in some cases they need to see some people aren’t trying to get off on taxes but just save a buck on cigarettes. I mean everyone’s taken a history class and we know how the UK is about their taxes😂 so ig that’s why they take those cigs so serious but seriously some of these cases the people are innocent or have no idea they are breaking any rule and they treat them like they are smuggling actual drugs.

[@tattiebogle4976]

@Tanner, there's a legal amount of cigarettes you can carry in and out of countries. Anyone who travels knows that. Different rules for different countries in Europe. An English person would definitely know that. It's common knowledge in the UK. All the guy with the money had to do was prove it was legal money. You can carry as much cash as you want but you have to show it's yours and you've paid taxes on it. Even if it was tips or a gift - just explain the origin.

They finally changed the rules after people mostly stopped smoking here. Just goes to show you it was really all about money. Such garbage.

[@T.S.000]

There are people in Chicago, IL, where the cigs cost about $16/pack (as of Jan. 2023), that would drive 4-5 hours to buy cigs in Missouri, where the cigs cost about $60/carton (or about $6/pack). They would drive around to a few locations and buy 10-20 cartons (they can only buy 2 cartons per customer; 2 people = 4 cartons per location). Once they get back to Chicago, they would sell the cigs for $10/pack.
