    If you are hauling for revenue and earn a living as in real work or similar, then yes you need to be a part of a drug testing situation somewhere.

    You cannot "Not" have drug testing as part of work in trucking.

    Under 26K no consortium, but must have drivers file with pre-hire drug test. And yes, you still needed even if you are owner and one man crew. If you drive it is needed.

    In TN intrastate, you don’t have to have drug testing or DOT number.
