FMCSA to Lower Random Drug Testing Level to 25% in 2016

2015-12-21 20:02:08| Trucking - Topix.net

The trucking industry will be able to randomly test 25% of its drivers for drug use during 2016, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration announced on Dec. 21. FMCSA indicated the change will go into effect Jan. 1. In the announcement, Scott Darling, FMCSA's acting administrator, indicated the agency based its decision after the positive rate for random drug testing fell below a 1 percent threshold for the three consecutive years of 2011, 2012, and 2013. The agency's administrator may choose to lower the minimum annual random drug testing percentage rate to 25 percent when the industry-wide random positive rate has been less than 1 percent.
