Wondering if this will be a fatal flaw in pursuing a career in auto repair. Please provide any feedback you may have to offer. Thank you.

It is in the state I live in now a majority of states I think. So is a list of altering meds or things that can effect judgement all fine except despite being Federally illegal still we still draw a line for work/jobs that could be dangerous to others. If any impairment makes you screw up a repair that can cause an accident with the vehicle YOU touches last be glad I'm not the judge in that case. Go do your auto training and put your whole 100% into it. Dump the use of that stuff legal or not and find some other help that's known to no impair your judgement. Easy call sport, choose what matters to you and a career IMO this is inconsistent with being a dependable mechanic legal for you or not so make your choice, Tom Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Feb 26, 2020, 12:36 PM Post #3 of 4 (1826 views) Re: Medical marijuana testing in automotive industry Sign In Tom is right. This trade is too dangerous and most reputable companies will give random drug tests. There insurance companies would never cover you under their policy to drive cars anyway. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. stroller Novice Feb 27, 2020, 12:18 PM Post #4 of 4 (1501 views) Re: Medical marijuana testing in automotive industry Sign In Independent shops do their own and I'm sure there are owners who par take in the 4-20 as well. Any corporate entity can do drug test's as a pre-employment test. Problem us too many study too hard and wind up failing. Ain't no way I'd take anything to a pot head to be fixed. Plus the liability is way to high a risk. Like said talk to an actual doctor, not one you go to get a card. Some schools treat students as they would in a job, they will not allow the use either.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
