When police take you in to the hospital for blood testing, Do they test for drugs besides alcohol,if they do not suspect drug use? Or is it an automatic proceedure?

Re: Blood testing by police
It is probable that the police will request a full tox screen. This is particularly true if the person was arrested for dui and the blood alcohol content is to low for the symptoms of being under the influence noted by the officer.
