If i am an owner operator and do not have a cdl am i required to complete the drug and alcohol clearinghouse?
I have a violation on my clearinghouse….how much will the fine be if I get pulled over
If I refused a pre-employment drug screen for a driver/helper position with a chance to get cdl. Does that go to clearing house? I had an interview with Labatt and had to take a drug test for them well the lady that took my urine was having a bad day or idk what her problem was but she didn’t even look at my pee she grabbed it from my hands and threw it away and immediately asked me to wait another 3 hours before I can test again. So I left. It was a pre employment drug screen for Labatt the job was a driver helper position with a chance to get a cdl in 6months.
I am an owner operator with cdl but truck is intrastate only and weights under 26001 pounds. I just got my usdot number do I need to do a drug screen
Once you have completed everything will petitioning for removal will it still be visible to other possible employers
Good Morning! I was hit a parked CMV in a truck stop parking lot. Police weren’t called, no tickets or citations, however there was enough damage that the truck was towed. Is that DOT reportable being that it wasn’t on a highway? Thanks!!

If the lot isn’t blocked off to public travel with gates or signs, then the accident would still be DOT-recordable. But wouldn’t require post-accident testing since there was no citation.
If I pass a dot drug test for a prospective employer but I am flagged for tampering because I was talking about things I shouldn’t have and made the tester suspicious that I cheated on the test without actually cheating. Does clearing house mark the exact reason why it would be flagged? Can talking about cheating actually be labeled tampering without actually tampering anything? I’m worried future employers might not want to hire me due to the possible labels used on clearinghouse… and I also don’t really want to have my privacy invaded through an observed test. Also can I request a retest? Or a hair follicle/ mouth swab test to confirm? Would a retest make the possible tampering flag disappear?

No it counts as a dirty enjoy the bs sap program
Dont violations go away 5 years from the date entered into the clearinghouse?
Do companies that hire SAP drivers make that company's insurance premium go up
So you don't need to do the clearinghouse to operate a light duty commercial vehicle?
Okay does anyone that has going through sap and finish it now if it stay in clearinghouse or is removed

Quick Question: if you fail a DOT pre employment drug test for an employer who doesn’t require a CDL to drive there smaller trucks. Does that get reported to the clearinghouse?
@Trucksafe

If they weren’t requiring you to operate a CDL-sized vehicle, it shouldn’t have been a DOT test in the first place and so should not be reported to the Clearinghouse. Whether they know that or not is the question.

@@Trucksafe Thank you, I greatly appreciate the response. They did require a DOT physical but the DOT drug test was a surprise to me as well. It said on the application it was regulated by 49 CFR 391.21 & no request or mentions of the clearinghouse was made to me. So i assumed they wouldn’t be able to report to the clearinghouse. Correct?

@BreadManAustin Just depends if they conducted as an actual DOT test or not. If DOT, they may end up reporting it. If non-DOT, then probably not.

@@Trucksafe Thank you very much! I actually looked back on the paper work I was sent with to the testing facility & under regulation it said NON-DOT. So I should be in the clear just in case I didn’t pass. As long as they scanned that paperwork then it should went in as a NON-DOT test? The facility wouldn’t have changed it as far as you know?

Hair follicle as well as urine
They Shouldn't be able to shut down a driver for smoking pot in a state that potnis leagle in. I feel it is overstepping our rites. Its leagle in the states
Question? If someone hires me can they give the house false information on test results? Actually I’ll do a video on the situation i had been in. I was conned into driving for this livestock hauler jack wagon. We will call this jack wagon, Daniel Shipp, and his partner, Craig. These two will be exposed throughout my channel as I hope others can learn from this, and not be caught up in the con that I was in,
Why are trucking school drug screens considered pre-employment? It really makes no sense!
Another regulation against cdl drivers and truck companies. GlAD that i quite driving 2019 after the E-Log after 14 year's owner operator. Seance than i say you are brainless to be driving a truck this day's! Stay away to over the road driving will ruin your life in every way and you will never make money. Not worthy even if you get $1 a mile As the drivers became more stupid the government will F..k you more. If you do any business with a trucking companies for example you are mechanic just charge thim way more! Don't forgot regardless how much they loose they going to be happy that they are driving so at least make money on the them like the CLEARINGHOUSE makes money. 5 years out of diving and proud of that!

What are you doing now for income? I just graduated cdl school and seeing your comment now makes me skeptical about the industry. What trade would you recommend a 30 yr old getting into if not trucking?
