Sunshine Coast district acting Inspector Shane Panoho said on Thursday the sting was set up to reinforce the damaging effects of drink and drug driving.
“This shows that anywhere, anytime, you can expect to see police on our roads,” Insp Panoho said.
“We can pop up near industrial locations, residential or major arterials.
“We are tired of having to go to serious road crashes, where people’s loved ones are being harmed, injured or killed.”
Paramedics took a person to Sunshine Coast University Hospital in a stable condition following a two-vehicle crash on the Bruce Highway on-ramp at Meridan Plains.
