There may be something in the water out Macalister way after two people allegedly tested positive for drugs while driving on the highway near the town west of Dalby on Friday.

Sergeant Sean Donaghy of Dalby Police said a 29-year-old woman from Chinchilla had tested positive for an illicit drug after being pulled over on the Warrego Highway near Macalister about 8.53am Friday.

She was given a notice to appear in court next month.

Then, about 5.37pm the same day, a 20-year-old Chinchilla man also tested positive for an illicit substance after he was pulled over by police while driving on the Warrego Highway near Macalister.

He was handed a notice to appear in Dalby Magistrates Court on March 16.
