I would be okay with drug tests that didn't fail you for weed. That can show up on a test weeks after it's been consumed. The drugs that would actually significantly impair you (alcohol, opiates) clear out of your system in hours/days.



TBF weed will significantly impair you. Driving a car or operating machinery on weed is super dangerous.

Just not weeks after consumption...


TBF it depends on the weed, but yes, I agree that it can significantly impair you.

My point is that the test is testing the wrong thing. A sobriety test would be best.


There are drug testing companies that exist solely to farm out the work to a lab and remove any marijuana hits from the results. Some companies in places where weed is legal use these.
