News To Pee or Not To Pee
posted by on November 14 at 12:07 PM
A high-school student in Arkansas claims to have developed the drug test of the future, says the AP. Rather than using today’s common urinalysis, this one works by testing saliva. The top selling point is that the test could be administered to drivers roadside, rather than taking them back to the police station to pee in a cup.
Drug testing drivers to gauge impairment has long been a questionable practice. Traces of marijuana, for instance, can be stored in fat cells and produce a positive test weeks after the effects wear off.
Marc Hosken, a senior, said his new oral-based test can be observed directly. Traditional urine tests aren’t directly observed and a subject can cheat by diluting or substituting the specimen.
And not just the pee, some people are substituting the specimen with one of these.
I had to take a piss test for a job once and used a “cleansing shake” to pass. Maybe they’ll come out with a breath mint for the tongue that has the same effect for this new technology.
someone buy that kid a crate of poppy seed muffins.
Saliva tests have been out for a while. Did no one have the heart to break it to this kid that he "invented" something that's already on the market? There's even a company that does surface testing so the kids (or employees) don't even need to be there when the tests are administered. Their website and blog is at www.integritydetection.com.
Can we see to it this kid never gets laid again? I mean, come on.
your on the right road for an ass beatin
