When you have a blood alcohol test off the police, do they test for cannabis? Ok, so i got pulled over last night. police man said he could smell alcohol so breathalyzed me. it came up 40 on the screen an fail( limit is 35 but i think they let u off if its under 40). but the guy told me that by the time i get to the police station an blow on the police machine, it should be below 40. (also in the mean time he said he can smell cannabis on me so ive handed over a baggy with 1 little bud in it, so chances are, he knows i smoke). got to the police station. wait in for about an hour an we gone in to the room. i could still taste the whiskey in my mouth so asked if i could have a drink but the police man said i weren't allowed. when i blew the machine its came up 'mouth alcohol'. so he said i gotta do a blood test. which i gave consent. so basically what i want to know is, will they test for any thin else except drink? because i think i had half a beer an 2 small shots of whiskey in about the space of 5-6 hours so think i may be ok about the drink but i do smoke bud quite regualy so just wanted 2 know if they would prosecute 4 that (and even look 4 it?) By the way im Based in the U.K Hope some1 can enlighten me :| Jase Also..... he police man (he was on his own when he pulled me) said that if i gave him wat was on me that wud b that cause he could smell it an it was only a small amount. also when i got there i didnt see him hand anythin over as evidence to the person behind the desk. fingers crossed eh :( i repeat the police man said "as long as i pass wateva was on me over he would not charge me 4 it" so im just wondering if it was gonna say i was over the limit of cannabis aswell as alcohol? Thx mate appreciate it :) fingers crossed
Can I drink any alcohol the night before a blood test? I am having a blood test done by my doctor Saturday morning to test some hormone levels. I am going out tomorrow night and wasn't sure if it would be ok to have a couple of drinks or not. I tried looking this up online but everything I found was about having blood-alcohol tests done, which is not what this is. I've hardly ever had blood tests done so I have no idea what's ok, so any advice is appreciated. I will probably call the doctor tomorrow, too. Thanks! Lola - I realize it won't kill me to hold off. But if by chance it makes no difference whatsoever, I'd have a couple, so I figured I'd ask, that's all..

I'm getting a blood test saturday, if I drink Friday night will alcohol show up? I'm getting a blood test to see if I'm anemic on Saturday, also they are checking my cholesterol levels. I usually drink Friday afternoons/nights, but I don't want the alcohol to show up on my blood test. The blood test isn't to see if I have had alcohol in my system, it's for something completely different. I heard that if they're not testing for alcohol levels specifically, it won't show up. So what should I do? Should I only drink a little? Nothing at all? What do you think?
Blood Alcohol test in ohio after car accident....Please Read.? Alcohol Blood Tests in ohio after a car accident..Very Interesting. Please Read? A friend of mine was just in a bad car accident she was hit head on by a drunk driver. She taken to the hospital in an ambulance and the other driver refused treatment. He blew 2 times over the limit and was arrested. They asked my friend one time if she had been drinking and she replied no. She was unconscious for a bit but as soon she was in the ambulance she was able to tell them exactly what happened. They asked questions about her family everybody's birthdays, social security numbers, they even couldn't find her ID but she told them where it was and told them the address was an old one and gave them her new one. At the hospital she was still wide awake able to talk with everyone, answered all questions. She had 2 broken ribs and a collapsed lung but will live. She was by herself when the crash happened. But she told another friend that at 9pm she had a few drinks but slept it off until 3am and then within a half hour of getting in her car the crash happened. They already investgated the accident the other driver when left of center and could see my friends brakes and not the other drivers because he didnt brake. Well Im not sure if she drank or not because none of the cops been notified by the ambulance people or the hospital when they all took blood, but Im not sure if they even check if she had alcohol in her system. Im not sure in ohio if they check when she said she didnt drink and was very helpful and awake. It's been almost a week and nobody has contacted her or anything Im pretty sure shes worried. I wonder if the doctor or hospital would have even told her if there was alcohol in her system, like if they had someone talk to her like a consuelor or even the police to let them know..what do you think? Would something like that be in her medical records at the hospital.

Would a blood alcohol test be performed on an unconscious driver? Someone I know was in a single car accident last weekend. Head on into some trees, and they do not recall any of this. There is actually about a 4 hr block they do not recall, leading up to the accident. They were at a friends, drinking. As this person does pretty much daily. The individual was only at the hospital for about 10 hours, then released to go home. Would the police have done a blood test on them? He does not recall anything of the accident, only waking up in the hospital. I'm hoping they would have, given the conditions. Middle of night on a friday, single car wreck, no skid marks, residential street, vehicle is totaled.

Can you be stopped by the police in USA just for a routine alcohol blood test? I have heard that the police in USA cannot stop cars just for testing the drivers blood content of alcohol, if there isn't any real and obvious signs of drunk driving. In other countries they can do it whenever they want. The reason is obvious... those countries do what they can to keep drunk drivers away from their roads. Another question ... is this handled the same way in all of the states in USA? Forget the part in my question about "blood tests". I meant "breth" test, or what ever it might be called. I am surprised no. ONE of the answers so far claims that it is against the constitution to stop cars without signs of drunk driving or other unlawful behavior.
if u hve been bnned frm driving 4 DD does gp test blood only 4 alcohol when he puts u thru medical when ban up my brother was banned from driving through being unfit due to consuming to much alcohol 4 years ago. His ban is now served and when applying for license back was told he had to sit a medical by a DVLA approved Dr. Part of this medical involves submitting a blood and urine sample for screening. He reckons the blood and urine will be screened only for alcohol to determine if his blood alcohol levels suggest to dvla that he is still dinking too much and could be liable to re comit.. Or reassure the powers that be,that his drinking appears under control and therefore he seems less likely to recomit..I am sure th Dr has the blood samples screened for all illegal substances regardless of the fact that alcohol was the reason for driving ban at the outset. Can anyone confirm what is correct.
