Cannot believe you would pass the test. The blue dot test is a saliva test and shows up marijuana in the system. It is more similar to the amount in the blood (which will be sky high 2 hrs after use) and fades faster than the urinary test. No cigarettes do not interfere to make the test negative. It might foul it up but that is doubtful since it is used in many people who smoke a lot of things.
