The story focused on crime and safety concerns in the region s large Regional Transit system, namely Light Rail trains. Last week we asked if you favor workplace drug-testing. The poll results are so close it s sobering, finding that 45.4 percent favor drug testing, 40.9 percent oppose it and 13.6 percent are unsure. No question about it. However, they usually drive automobiles to get to and from their jobs, and this concerns me.
Safety is a big issue.
I work in aviation. Also, one can't test for alcohol, which is the most widely abused drug in our society. If I do something to cause an accident or hurt someone else, I can understand the need. For any other reason no way. If they are in a position that deals with children such as teachers, bus drivers, coaches, daycare etc.
