Drug abuse is strictly forbidden. A misconception that still circulates is that Hells Angels regularly turn to drugs. The opposite is true. The club has a no-tolerance policy for involvement with illegal narcotics. For example, the Toronto charter strictly forbids the use of needles.
Everyone stops when the police arrest a member. If a member is stopped on the side of the road by the police, the whole charter stops as well. They do this out of solidarity, but there is also another reason behind it: the charter hopes to come across as intimidating to the police officer in question.
