What can cause false positives for cocaine? Help! (Terrible Day)

I work as a lube tek in a car dealership. Iv been there a week. Today i had to drive a standard. Long story short, i wrecked it into 2 parked cars. I owe them $1,000 Was piss tested imediately. The instant test failed for Coke. The piss test lady said that the lab results would come in tommarow, and that the people i work for, would probly give me the benefit of the the doubt if i had taken anything that may have given me a false positive.
Erowid says: Kidney infection (kidney disease) Liver infection (liver disease) Diabetes Amoxicillin, tonic water
Do they mean Amoxicillin, and tonic water mixed? Or could just Tonic water be an excuse? Do you think i could swing saying that i was taking Amoxicillin even tho i don't have a prescription?
Please, please help me out here. My lunch break is almost over. She said they were going to wait for the official results from the lab tommarow morning. I need an excuse.

Holy shit...I have no advice but I can offer a piss test kit that will let you piss clean if they let you retest. (I would definately demand a retest, it's your job on the line here)
Let me check to make sure I have the fake urine still...just a sec.

Hey, it's worth a shot if he can't pass on his own. Either that or he should get someone's clean, fake urine ASAP. He could still use the temp bottle and heater for the real thing.

I agree, I meant more that the "sending it to the lab" may be a GC/MS and may determine if it is actually the cocaine metabolite and not a false positive... I generally overworry these things though so +grain salt

if your were doing coke they can tell if its a metabolite or a false positive, you cant just say you were doing amoxillin unless you actually do cuz then theyll test for amoxillin and it will show its not in your system...

I would say that your friend had brought back some coca tea from Ecuador or something. (Coca tea comes from the same leaves as cocaine) And, being a friend, he offered you some the night before or something. Coca tea isn't cocaine, but could definately cause a false positive. You might have to explain drinking coca tea, which is a legal grey area.
But the question is will they believe you, no matter how good the story? If you were in their shoes, would you believe you?

Its not like i was getting skiid at work, or staying up all night, and than working. I did shit like 3-4 days before. It sucked so bad. The thought crossed my mind "mabey i should just go get somebody who knows how to drive one of these" but than i said, fuck it, i'll see if i can get it started first, than go get somebody, so it won't look like i didn't try first. I tried to turn the key, but the engine didn't start. So i pushed in the clutch, and turned the key. To my surprise that made the car move forward. I tried to hit the breaks, but i guess i only hit the clutch, and or the gas, because the car started moving faster. I looked for the emergency break, but it was some fancy new model crap, and it wasn't anywher practical. Thats when i wrecked. I had probably traveled 10-20 yards, and the car was moving pretty fast. destroyed both bumpers.
Anyway, i'm gonna try to bullshit my way out of this tommarow morning. I had a sinus infection. Instead of going to a Dr. to have him tell me that, I found one of the multiple leftover Amoxiccilan prescriptions, and have been taking those.
Doubt it will work, but i'll let everybody know how it goes.

Then actually take some Amoxicillin tonight. Drink a lot of fluids too. Flush your system good 3-4 hours before the test.

stepping on the clutch peddal disengages the transmission, if the car moved it was because it was rolling, applying the brake would have been sufficient to stop it
