Time to weed out the hippies 😜
Is it going to include alcohol, pain medication and common cold remedies?
No.
"Q. Are you testing for alcohol?
A. Our random drug-testing initiative is not designed to address driving under the influence. However, our current policy already provides us with the option of using local law enforcement and medical professionals for determination of suspected alcohol impairment. Our officials will use the protocols already in place for suspected alcohol use."
Note: A driver who is involved in a case of clearly observed tampering or does not comply with collector instruction within a drug test will be penalized as if there were a positive drug test result. If a driver who is selected for drug testing does not show up for testing or refuses to provide a sample, he or she will be penalized as if there were a positive drug test result.
I passed them for the last 20 years of my driving career. You had to drink a nasty drink in the early days, follow that with a qt of water, then wait minimum of 1 hr till you were good. With the help of science, you now only need 30 seconds with a microwave to get sample up to "body" temperature and hide a 3 oz bottle on your body. Unless you strip search the drivers, easy pass. They also make fake (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)es with a pouch for the urine, if you have to provide a sample under supervision.
Any non WOO driver that gets a win be prepared to fail your drug test.
The testing results will be done by a independent lab that is run by Randy Sweet, just to make sure all results are secure and accurate. Mr Sweet has stated that you can rest assured that his company knows what their doing and will stand behind the results 100%.
yawn...ain't nothin' gonna happen
I wonder if he will take them to court on this one to?
Why does WoO need drug testing? Bloomer doesn't run that series very often.
This is a mistake. Your gonna see a few top end drivers popped. Weed is there for 30 days. One drunk mistake and your got. I wonder if they will test crew members also. Not gonna mention any names but I'd make a bet we lose a few
Thats a bunch of BS!!! What a person does on their own time is their business.
I am random drug tested at my job. Just the purely random ones, plus the ones for being a CDL holder. So I'm used to this stuff and do not try to fix a test. It is not worth it, they are way more strict on you if you try to Dr it.
In saying that, this is laughable. As if there's this wave of catastrophic wrecks and dirty driving by people under the influence. There isn't, and yes, there are drivers and crew members who use drugs, party. Maybe they are trying to be more mainstream, I dunno. If there was a huge issue with drugs and causing awful wrecks, etc, ok. There is not and I'd just leave it as is.
Worry about your purses, TV Deals, tracks, and fans. Not wether or not you are becoming mainstream and professional. Because we aren't even close to that purse wise and facility wise.
