Police officers need more training on trespass laws to avoid accidentally breaking them while making arrests, a solicitor says. 

The call comes after a High Court judge quashed an Auckland man's drink-drive convictions because a police officer unlawfully arrested him in his driveway after he refused a breath test.

Solicitor Umar Kuddus said he had seen the situation “time and time again” and had personally dealt with two cases in the past 12 months.
