who tests for drugs: employers or schools as well?

Schools also. Don't do drugs, and you're all good.

 

Don't get into trucking, it is boring. Everyone drug tests you. Since trucking, i have not had one single line of coke or joint.

This is no kind of life. Run!

 

Pay this guy no mind. Pot use is encouraged out here. Party up!

 

lmaoooooooooooooooo

 

It would be an excellent idea for all trucking schools as well as all trucking companies to aggressively test students, applicants, and veteran drivers alike for all drugs.

It would also be an excellent idea for motor vehicle departments, in all 50 states, Guam, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Marshall Islands to aggressively test students, applicants, and veteran drivers alike for all drugs.

 

If you're concerned about passing a drug test, truck driving is not for you. HOWEVER, if you used-to-use but are now walking down a drug-free path, this job might work for you IF you keep your nose clean... because (IMO) you will-get-caught if you're using and driving a truck.

 

They drug tested in my school towards the end if the classroom training. A few days before we actually started driving. Our class magically shrunk by about 15 % before the road training.

What someone did before trucking doesn't matter to me. But how could you expect to get into this type of career and not expect to get tested. Get clean and stay clean or find a different career

 

I got tested during school and passed with flying colors. We did have one student who was suspected of being intoxicated while we were doing pretrip inspections before getting started with field maneuvers. He was pulled aside and tested on the spot. We didn't see him for the rest of class and i couldn't be happier.

No reason to be intoxicated driving a 4 wheeler let alone a truck.
