Officers were conducting a general patrol of the Parkes Cemetery shortly after 12am on Wednesday when they observed a silver sedan parked in the area.

When police stopped and spoke to the two occupants of the vehicle they could smell cannabis.

Officers asked the two if they had anything they wished to declare.

One produced a glass bong and an ice pipe as well as a clear resealable bag containing what police allege to be just under two grams of cannabis.

While searching the vehicle officers located another ice pipe in the glove box.

The man will appear in Parkes Local Court on December 16.

Emergency services were called to a single vehicle accident early on Monday morning.

The accident happened at 6.15am five kilometres south of Parkes on the Newell Highway.

A 19-year-old Queensland man was driving a 2008 Toyota Hilux utility north on the highway when the vehicle drifted to the wrong side of the road.

The man attempted to correct the vehicle, however it crossed both lanes and entered a table drain before rolling and coming to a stop 50 metres away.

As a result of the accident, the rear tray was torn from the chassis.

The driver was conveyed to Parkes Hospital with suspected neck injuries.

Further examination revealed a hairline fracture in his neck.

At the time of the police report he was in a neck brace awaiting consultation.

Mandatory blood tests were performed.
