    Drew a random yesterday, tester gave me a card he filled out.

    Said that the Mounties may ask when you last had a test......

    I was quick to mention that your last test won't matter for an accident situation, and that there was no legal requirement to carry proof of a last test.

    Is this just viral marketing?
    Has anyone been asked about testing when stopped?

    Dont worry about it. Its not your job to keep track of the tests. Just tell the cops that if I had flunked the last test, I wouldnt be here, right?

    No I was never asked when the last time I had a whizz quiz...then again I've only been pulled over once and around back twice in 3 years so I don't know.

    Maybe the company you work for has had drivers ticketed for drugs or alcohol?

    Up here in the Great White North, not all carriers have to do drug/alc screens, just the ones that operate south of the 49th do.
