Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, at the driver's request or by order of the judge.

Yes. If you test positive for drugs, you may request repeat testing to confirm the result, and a judge may also order it. The confirmation test is usually a blood test, and if it is positive, you pay for it. It does not matter how many substances you have taken.
