Truckers Using Cocaine More Than Marijuana, Study Finds By John Gallagher of Freight Waves, A new study reveals that the U.S. Department of Transportation may be underreporting cocaine abuse by truck drivers, a finding that could put more pressure on federal regulators to allow hair testing as an alternative to urine testing for preemployment drug screening by trucking companies. Hair testing study shows underreporting of hard drugs Because the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administrations Drug & Alcohol Clearinghouse does not allow hair test results to be included in the database, DOT is seriously underreporting the actual use of harder drugs by truck drivers, such as cocaine and illegal opioids, said Doug Voss, a professor of logistics and supply chain management at the University of Central Arkansas (UCA). Our analysis clearly concludes that hair testing identifies these harder drugs at higher percentages than the single urine testing method relied on by the federal government. Since FMCSA began publishing clearinghouse data in 2020, marijuana has far outranked other illegal drugs in positive test results, with cocaine and methamphetamines coming in a distant second and third, respectively.

Knight-Swift Transportation has seen a very strong 2021. Cash flow generation has been used to pursue some deals, as leverage is still very much under control.
