Following investigations officers searched the car and allegedly located a snap-lock back full of drugs – believed to be ‘ice’ – in the car.
The drugs were seized and will undergo forensic examinations.
The driver, 39, and passenger, 37, were both arrested and taken to Orange Police Station where they were each charged with supply indictable quantity of drugs.
Both men were refused bail and appeared in Orange Local Court on Tuesday.
