The discovery was made at the traffic lights stop near Truck Festival in Steventon on July 24, during a traffic patrol.
Officers suspected the man’s red Mercedes A Class might be linked to drug supply and carried out a “thorough” search, but initially found nothing.
Officers remained suspicious and took the man to Abingdon custody for a strip search, where he revealed a sock hidden in his underwear.
"Just as the custody search process was about to begin, the male produced a sock from inside his pants.
The 36-year-old man from outside the area was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs, possession of cannabis, and driving without insurance.
