    I am a driver in a large metropolis for a medical diagnostics unit. I do not get drug tested, nor have I ever been in finding this employment. That “DOT requirement” is false.

      I don’t know about the class of driver you fall under, but bus drivers, taxi drivers, truck drivers, airline pilots and railroad employees are all required by DOT to take a drug test before employment. There are a few other cases where they are also required to have a drug test, such as after an accident.

      This case sounds like a taxi, so I’d guess it falls under the rules for taxi drivers.

        You’re referring to c class drivers.

        I am a class d driver and had no such tests. Ever.

        You can look this stuff up before you comment if you’d like.

          There’s a reason I said “in a lot of cases”. I never said “in all cases” or similar.

          Taxi drivers (and this case is a medical taxi) are one of the cases where it is required. Hence why I brought it up, and then you argued I was wrong because as a driver for a different sort of service it wasn’t required of you. And then I named several examples where it was, including one directly relevant to this discussion, and now you’re doubling down despite what kind of thing you drove having nothing to do with the point at any point.
