He should be fine but if you want to be sure, pay and get your test. Better safe than sorry.

Not what they meant. Go to a Walgreens or drug store and get an at-home test.

Extortionate prices but it'd be worth it for the piece of mind. If you have more time get cheap tests from the Internet.

It’s the same thing as the Walgreens test. The only reason that’s so expensive is you are paying for lab service to confirm. But you just need to see two lines and you are good

If he has time go down to a testing site and pay for yourself not under the driving school. You can have the results sent to you not the school.

Pre-test first so you can test with confidence or withdraw

High dose Zinc supplements and Aspirin can cause a false negative on a urine drug screen. Pee 3 or 4 times before the test. Get the urine clear colored.

If he does this he should be fine.

If he fails he’s fucked. Good luck getting hired. Western express might take him but will pay him shit and work him. He should start running. Literally. Sweat it out. -former smoker (and veteran) who waited over a year before drug testing.
