Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes.
Yes. At a preventive checkpoint, like the alcohol and drug checkpoint in the picture, officers may require any driver to take a drug test, even if they have not been in an accident or show any signs of drug use. The test is normally done right there, using saliva and an approved device, without going to a medical center.
