    started October 1st, as seen in my current OOIDA magazine (LandLine), the DOT drug screen will now check for:

    MDMA (Ecstasy)

    the agency lowered the cut off levels for detecting the presence of cocaine and amphetamines, and heroin was added to the list.

    (so even trace *lesser* amounts will get you now).

    If an initial test shows positive results for illegal drugs, the sample is then put through a confirmation test.

    Anything they can do to get rid of dopers is fine with me. Blow em all away, I don't care.

    No system is perfect, but it's such a low number it's worth the price to me.
