Sooo.. The drug test i got at school. Does that carry over, or no? Probably not, huh?

As a driver you have zero responsibility in testing except showing up at the appointed testing area to be tested. You won't be held responsible if the feds hit your boss for violating the law.

I knew a driver that was in the CR England crew that had just got off the trainers truck when they detected he had smoked a joint 3 months prior. If you use something other than prescription and you dont have a doctors writ showing it was prescribed you will get terminated. No money from them when they kick you out the door. It is your head ache to get yourself home. -
If upon being tested your UA comes back positive or you refuse to test your employer is required by law to remove you from all safety sensitive jobs. Positive or negative is all the MRO transmits to the company. You are now disqualified and will remain so until you complete the return to duty process. This disqualification will last for life without this being done. DAC keeps up with drug testing and generally speaking you can expect a positive to be placed there. I had to sign a release once so an old company could release my drug testing history with them.

Did you receive a valid Med Card from your Physical and did it include a drug screen? If so, you should be in the clear.
The Employer is another story though. -
