Probation officers have different powers in each state. Here in Louisiana, felony probation officers are fully commissioned POST certified, gun toting police officers with full powers of any police officer. You can get into probable cause issues though. Not only is every state different, every judicial court system within the state seems to lean different ways in it's interpretation of the laws.

Okay, to simplify this: yes, in some states POs are law enforcement officers. In all states they are representatives of the state and court officers. As such, any activites in which they engage with others who are not under their supervision falls under the Constitution. That is, without very specific probable cause or a warrant, they have no search or siesure authority over anyone.

If confronted, say nothing, simply do not speak, and call an attorney.

If you fail a drug test on probation will they call you?

Depends on your probation officer- it's their call. But a weak negative could just also be a defect in the test used. Most companies that sell drug tests will tell you that a weak negative is still passing, no matter how faint the line. There is no such thing as weak negative. A test is either positive (drug metabolite present in sample) or negative (no drug metabolite present in sample). A line on an on-site test is read as negative no matter how faint.
