Observation and research
For some, drugs can become an addiction, in which case it may be considered to have instrumental value. For the most part, however, drugs are used for recreational purposes, or to alter the state of mind. Something that provides value but not purpose, like drugs, has no instrumental value.

Observation
Men who rape women are bad. Our government and society tells us that rapist go to jail. I believe that anyone who rapes is evil. My belief and what higher authorities claim match up, therefore this may be a true belief.*However, while this may be a true belief for many, it may not be so in other parts of the world.
