    If you are ticketed for a severe speeding ticket in California, if you drive a truck and a motorcycle. they feed you to this tiger they keep at the coup in Banning.

    As soon as the trooper pulls away, a big, yawning crack opens up in the road and swallows your truck.

    Down, down, down, you and your truck plummet.

    Satan's minions force you into a lease purchase, and you run Dollar General accounts for all eternity..........

    At least, that's what I HEARD.

    Dont worry about getting a ticket. Be very concerned if you get more than 3 tickets in 6 months. Do that and the companies will tell you to park it.

    How accurate is this statement? If they give you any paper, they tell you you have 24 hours to report to your company. If a ticket you are fighting doesn't have to be reported until adjudicated, then why does a warning have to ever be reported? ..... asking for a friend. :rolleyes:

    You would have to eat the buy the bag full to even think about it being a positive but even then a lab would be able to tell im pretty sure. They can tell whether you took morphine or hydrocodone. They give off diff metabolites.

    Yup, had this happen and it did cause an additional 2 days of ground time. Once it was said and done I was back on the road with nothing on the record. The initial lab only sees the spikes, then it goes for additional reading.

    Many sources say otherwise , even the mythbusters guys .
    This informal test here really makes me worry



    It also seems the cheaper tests are more likely to pick up the opiate without discriminating what sort it is. I would count on my company to use the cheapest tests they can find.

    In any case, not worth the stress
