8 years and 10 months is the average jail time for cocaine possession.
Well, I think that's only if you are actually dealing in the stuff and it's a repeat offence that you've been convicted of before several times. If you have only a small amount of cocaine in your posession and it's for personal use only, as well as it being a first-time offence, the likelihood is that you won't go to jail at all but just be fined and get a police warning.
If you continue to use cocaine after that and get caught a second time, any jail term would be unlikely to last longer than a year and probably not even that if, as I say, the drug was for your use alone. The average figure quoted above would only apply to an actual drug dealer who was selling the stuff to other people for profit, and had already been caught before and maybe served shorter jail terms. A lot depends upon personal circumstances- every case is different, it's hard to make a generalisation.
