If you are talking about how long it takes to show up negative on a tox screen(drug test), then about 3-5 day for both cocaine and crack. Unlike marijuana which shows up a positive on a tox screen for about 30-45 days(sometimes longer because THC absorbs itself in fat cells), coke and crack flush out quickly.

Your question is fairly broad, but probable cause is developed with the given situation, and can be progressive as that situation develops. Let's say, for example, you are driving a car and the officer notice's that you are driving erratically, (left of center, off the roadway edge, weaving, ect.) and becauses of his/her observances, makes a traffic stop. When the officer reaches your door and requests your drivers license, insurance, registration, he/she will also be looking about the interior of your vehicle for what is in plain view or odors. After all, traffic stops are dangerous for the officer making the stop. Usually the officer does not know the person he's stopped and it's unknown if there are weapons in the vehicle, and there is always the risk of the officer getting hit by another motorist driving by and gawking at what's happening. \n      The manor in which your were driving will be a good indicator that the driver of the vehicle is impaired in some way, be it alcohol or drugs, and the officer will most likely request you to exit the vehicle to submit to field sobriety tests, especially if the officer notices the odor of marijuana on your breath, or coming from you vehicle or if he notices any drug items in plain view. (Odors and items in plain view are probable cause.) Three common tests are given: Horizontal Gaze and Nystagmus, One Leg Stand and the Walk and Turn.   The one leg stand and walk and turn tests can actually be practiced by a person in an alterted state, however, the horzontal gaze and nystagmus is an involuntary body reaction and cannot be practiced. The officer will instruct you to follow his finger or a pen, moving your eyes only. What he/she will be watching for is the lack of smooth pursuit of the eyes. If a person is intoxicated or using drugs, the eyes will jerk back and forth as the person is trying to follow the movement of the pen. This test is not a 100% guarantee that the person is drunk or on drugs, but is a real good indicator. All states require licensed drivers to submit to a secondary test as a condidition of holding a drivers license, and failure to submit to such secondary test usually is a mandatory suspension of your driving privileges. Each law enforcement agency designates in their policy and procedures manual which secondary test will be given.... blood, breath or urine. Should the officer test you by breath and the test result is "0", the officer may request you to submit to a blood test or urine test. If you refuse which you have a right to do, the officer will need to obtain a search warrant for your blood or urine, and his probable cause for the search warrant would be the manor in which you were driving, the results of the field sobriety tests, his/her observances inside your vehicle, any smells that were noticed and the result of the intoximeter's test result. \n      There are so many varibles that come into play it's difficult to answer you with out being so long winded and more specific information in your question. Hopefully I have helped you in some way.

If you are filling it, you have half filled it.\nIf you are drinking it, you have half emptied it.\nIf you don't know if it was last being filled or emptied, you can ususally safely assume someone was drinking from it and that they left it behind.

First do not drink too much and drive. If you do have a couple of beers or glasses of wine at dinner and are of average weight, you should be ok. There are charts available that can give a gauge as to how many drinks you may have in a given time period for your age, sex and weight. This is a gauge only and can be affected by amount of food in your stomach etc. \n If you are pulled over and believe that you are not impaired then the best policy is to cooperate and be polite. In most states you would have had to be pulled over for a traffic infraction or based upon reasonable suspicion of impairment (most cases of reasonable suspicion would fall into a traffic violation category anyway). Many officers are specialists in DWI stops and will conduct the stop in a certain way to gain evidence of impairment. This will include your speech, mannerisms, odor of alcohol, coherence etc. If the officer is not satisfied that you are sober upon this first encounter he may ask you to exit the vehicle. He has every right to ask the driver of a vehicle to exit the car, this was part of a Supreme Court decision. \n  He will observe how you walk and interact with him. He will then ask you to take some Field Sobriety Tests. These are standardized tests. You can refuse. However this will turn the stop confrontational. An arrest for DWI can be made by officers prior observations of your driving, and the first encounter. If the officer thought you drove poorly enough to pull you over, that is strike one in his head, an odor of alcohol is strike two, a slight stumble out of the car and a refusal to take tests will most likely end in your arrest. Again if you are confident in your sobriety cooperate and be glad someone is out there potectiong the roads from drunks, hopefully the officer will have reciprocated your kindness with his own profesionalism.

I guess just go to the police station and ask them who you should tell or basically that you know someone who is using drugs and you would like to help them.

Most likely it is a drug/alcohol screening. Hair is used alot more often for drug/alchol testing and is more accurate them unrine. Hair also can determine if your friend has been on drugs or drank and about how long ago. Urine can not determine how long ago the person did drugs or drank. Urine is also moderately flushable(Flushing the body out with water or natural herbs to try to cleanse it of the drugs/alcohol), and no amount of water or cleansing liquid from the natural food store can cleanse hair of alcohol use or drug use.

He certainly has all the signs of it. Be blunt and ask him. At least he'll know you are paying attention. My ex was caught in the act and I NEVER suspected her. I came home from work sick one day and she was at home banging a cop. I never saw it coming because she never acted suspicious. Weird isn't it?

if you were in close contact with the smoke you probably inhaled it so i would think there would be some traces of it in your system. it would also depend on how long ago you smoked it.
