Hi, I have a CDL and get random tested. Been tested while on subs and have passed. I,m no expert but I think theres a specific test for Bup. In my case I,m pretty sure they were just testing for the usual crap not subs.

Hey jolter, thanks a million for your prompt reply. I feel much better now about taking the drug/alcohol test. It is good to know that we can still pursue certain career moves while dealing with our disease.

Yes you can pass a U.A. in fact nobody test for suboxone, but the suboxone doctor. Besides, a suboxone test is like 200 bucks. I pass my cdl random every single time! There is a danger though driving with a cdl that I have noticed. When you haven't had enuf sleep it's easier to fall asleep at the wheel while on suboxone. You nod out periodically.
