Enlighten me/us on how this process works. See, where I work, we have random and for cause testing. Let's just focus on random.
When my name gets pulled for a random test I go to the testing room. After paperwork is started, I am required to do two breathalyzers. One is a backup to justify the first, whether positive or negative.
Then I have to empty my pockets, wash my hands, and provide a urine sample. That urine sample container is then sealed and signed/initialed by both myself and the testing officer. It goes off to a lab for analysis. This could take up to three days.
Now, when we test drivers at the track, I am sure it is either by urine sample or blood draw. But, either way, the results have to be determined via lab analysis. Short of having a mobile lab, they have to be shipped off/out.
Is WoO going to have a mobile lab right at the track and did the sanctioning body have one for you when you were tested, Mattmac?
Seems to me if a driver is tested, the results have to be immediate before he hits the track that night, or..... they are going to use the results to stop him from going onto the track at the next event?
Interested to find out how this process will work.
