the urine collection
by: TruckerYitz

its a shame, but not providing a urine specimen is a DOT fail. n even if one has gone to the dr / lab/ etc and in my case, i tried but didn't fill the cup with enough urine. and i got a failure to report, and got fired.

i was dehydrated and got some urine into cup but not enough to get that split specimen. the system is supposed to weed out the junkies, but us honest drivers get hurt by it.

strange enough giving a hair specimen can test back to 90 days, but since the DOT doesn't require that test, it wont save a driver for failure to report.

good luck.

Drug Tests.
by: Jimmy

Failure to submit to a drug test is the same as failing a drug test. Will be almost impossible to get hired. Sorry. Jimmy
