the stated point of the program is not to identify and charge people with using drugs. its to stop people taking drugs and driving.

if they can't find a reliable benchmark to test people (a la .05), they're not testing your intoxication, just whether you've used drugs (or been around those that have). therefore, the whole drug bus concept is moot, imho.

Too true, cos if someone who has never had it had their drink spiked, they probably wouldn't know they were on speed, especially if it was only a little bit??? :?

prolly wouldn't hold up in court though.

like, if someone spikes an 18 y/o's lolly water with a little alcohol and they don't notice, they can be breath tested and they'd be over the limit.

pretty sure you'd get done, in either case.

If I ever get charged with this offense, this will be my line of defense.

FUCK this shit.

I've been saying for years that the only correct way of determining whether a driver is impaired is by actually testing the level of their impairment. If I were feeling more resourceful right now, I'd look up the company from the UK that has been developing a computer-based logic, reflex, and reasoning test for precisely this purpose.

Typical of our fucking society to try and treat the symptoms rather than the cause. Fortunately the rates of casual marijuana use are high enough in Victoria that I think this won't last for long in its current state.

Spit 'N' Kleen Detoxifying Mouthwash
If you are subject to oral drug testing with a swab, make sure you are prepared. This mouthwash is highly effective. Place in mouth and swish for 1-2 minutes. Your mouth will now be coated with solution and saliva flow will stop for approximately 30-40 minutes. Works every time guaranteed.

INSTRUCTIONS:
10 minutes before you desire to be clean.
Put 1/3 of the liquid in your mouth and swish it around for 3 minutes. Swallow the fluid. Put 1/3 of the liquid in your mouth and swish it around for 3 minutes. Swallow the fluid. Put 1/3 of the liquid in your mouth and swish it around for 3 minutes. Swallow the fluid. Just before use 5 breath fresheners of your choice.

Considering what it does, I don't reckon tasting good would be high on the manufacturer's list of requirements. :/

(Mr. Bracks calling TAC)

Mr. Bracks - "So, how can we get more revenue from victorians, looks like i've been spending too much money again..."

TAC - "Well, kids these days are all taking drugs, its very harmful and illegal. They also drive cars so, maybe we should test them for drugs?"

Mr. Bracks - "I don't get it, how can they druive and take drugs at the same time?"

TAC - "Forget it. We'll make some dodgy random drug test program we can convince the Victoria Police to use, all the fines can line your pockets."

I wanted to rehash the past and ask about Zydot or whatever, vinegar, et al, if anyone has heard of any fool proof answers or what... I heard that if you say yes to drinking that they can't drug test you also? all in the name of research :shock:

Kitty mentioned the other day about someone she know's who'd been smokin', got pulled up and tested negative.

In that sitch, I reckon my lack of poker face would have had me in the back of a divvy van, regardless of my test results. As would the pee in my pants :oops:

Agreed with GK !!

I question if these things actually work, or if they are infact using them ?? (ie: Says DRUGS on the bus, but they may have only been testing for booze):

I've been through these things 3 times, stoned as a MAGGOT and blew nothing..
