Hey y’all, I stumbled upon this article about CDL drug testing and I’m kinda confused. It says they test for weed, coke, meth, opiates, and PCP. How often do they do that? What if I pop positive for something I didn’t take? What if I have a legit prescription for painkillers or something?

I also found out about a thing called the Clearinghouse that keeps track of all the drug test results and violations. And that employers have to report them and check them before hiring anyone. That sounds like a pain in the ass. How does that work exactly?
Here’s the link to the article: https://newjobs4you.com/blogs/trucking-law/cdl-drug-test/
Can anyone explain this to me in plain English? And do you have any stories or tips about drug testing? I’ve been driving for 5 years and never had any issues, but I don’t want to mess up my career over some BS.
Thanks in advance!
