              (i)     is of a kind which could have been included in a warrant issued under this Division; or

              (ii)     will afford evidence about the contravention of a road or transport law; and

        (b)     in the case of seizure, the inspector believes, on reasonable grounds, that it is necessary to seize that thing in order to prevent its concealment, loss or destruction or its use in contravention of a road or transport law.
