The DOT physical drug test uses a five-panel system. This system determines the presence of the following five classes of drugs: marijuana, cocaine, opiates, amphetamines/methamphetamines and phencyclidine. Regarding alcohol, the test is developed to detect alcohol levels of .02 or greater. An alcohol concentration of .02 or greater may result in failure of the exam. Presence of one or any combination of the tested drug classes may also result in failure of the exam.
