If I took a test in college and got 40% of the answers wrong I would get an F.

  It's interesting to see the difference in testing between the US and Europe (or NL at least) - here getting 60% correct is a passing grade (usually 50% is the minimum)

  I had a class in college where a 40% curved to a B. But yeah, the drug dogs are an end-around of the 4th Amendment.

  Sure, but that's one particular dog. I'm asking about the statistics for all of the drug dogs in the US. I agree if a particular dog is wrong more than 10 - 20% of the time, the dog and/or the handler should be taken off of the job. And I agree that they probably shouldn't be allowed to be used by police unless they already have probable cause through some separate means.

    Why was this comment downvoted? It's a very legitimate and relevant question.

      I think it was seen as me slyly trying to defend the use of drug-sniffing dogs. I'm really not; I was just curious about the data, and wondered how much variation there might be.
