I certainly think so, but that's exactly what we're talking about. To quote from the article directly:

MORE than 9000 motorists will be randomly tested for drugs in a world-first initiative by Victoria Police.
Over nine thousand people randomly tested by the police force. Over nine thousand families to be subjected to invasion of their bodies by the state.

Quote:
Like random breath-testing for alcohol, police will not need reasonable suspicion to drug-test drivers - a fact that sets Victoria apart from European countries where the test is done.
Nine thousand-plus people to be harassed by police for having the audacity to drive on the public road. Nine thousand-plus people who will have a uniformed officer taking a swab inside of their mouth like they're animals.

"Mommy, why is the cop poking that thing in your mouth?"

"Don't worry honey, he's just trying to keep us all safe."

It disgusts me. The fact that people are ok with it disgusts me.

Or . . . maybe the police can just stick to pulling over people who are driving irregularly, and test them. That way people don't have to live under the police state and have our bodies searched against our will.
