The driver got pulled over by the police and fail to have a physical exam done and log book before he drives but was told to take a drug screen. He is using the company's truck and not his.

I do not understand the question. The driver is ultimately responsible if he/she is driving without the proper credentials. The employer may share fault, but the driver is the one that gets the ticket. That is the law.
