The drivers were all issued with three-month licence suspensions.

A 40-year-old Whyalla Norrie woman was also reported for allegedly refusing to comply with directions to supply an oral fluid analysis.

She lost her licence for six months and her vehicle was impounded for 28 days.

It comes as SA Police added cocaine to their lick-and-blow roadside tests, with the changes coming into effect this week.
