    I started truck driving school. I was planning to go to Stevens transport. I had stopped smoking pot over 45 days ago (for good!). The only application I did for Stevens was the online application and then began attending one of the schools they contract with. After going through the physical and drug test, the owoner of the school pulled me aside to talk to the doctor with Stevens over the phone. He informed my test came back positive THC. Since I have not officially been employed with Stevens (not even done with school yet- two weeks left) and do not even have a driver number yet, will they report this drug test to the DAC? Also, how long do they have to report it so I can get a copy of my DAC report? I do not intend to ever smoke pot again and want to make sure this has not ruined my chances for good. Any advice would be helpful since the owner of the school said that I am welcome to return to finish up my CDL training once the other students I was with are gone (in three weeks). I want to make sure I am not wasting my money once I am done and that someone will actually hire me. I don't plan on telling any prospective employer about trying to get on with Stevens since I was not really employed by them.

    yes failing a drug screen IN SCHOOL gets you reported.....!!!

    you're toast.

    you do not have to mention anything about not going to Stevens, but you cannot hide the positive results from the school.....

    even if you pay for (and you will out of your own pocket) the drug rehab, you still will have a positive on your record..!! even going to rehab gets reported..!!

    good luck to you at your next career choice. you're DONE.....


    oh yes they do....!! so does positive results when one is a student in trucking school...!!!

    if the fat ace "12345" would read i quit smoking pot and just to let you know i found out that they dont report it cause i never was employed. If i wanted to grow weed i would. you should stop eating truck stop food and get in your truck and drive.

    here is what I've observed, if the company paid for you to get the pre employment drug screen completed it's going on your DAC. Take it for what it is, the only way to find out for sure is to request a copy. I feel for ya, kind of.
