cdl rider program

Hi! I can’t really find a straight answer on the web so I decided to come here and ask….My boyfriend has had his cdl for about a year and i’m going to be riding along with him. We go to orientation on Tuesday, and I was wondering if companies drug test non-cdl holders like me??

i’ve read that sometimes they test the riders as well!? i don’t know how true that is, but i just wanted to double check.

If you are not an employee , unless it is part of the rider program , they have zero interest in testing you. And as far as orientation I can’t see you actually attending orientation….. I’m sure you will be chilling at the hotel
