Understanding DOT & CDL Physicals

A DOT (Department of Transportation) physical is a federally required medical exam for commercial drivers to ensure they are fit to operate a vehicle safely. These exams follow FMCSA guidelines and include checks on blood pressure, vision, hearing, and overall health. A valid DOT medical certificate is required to maintain your commercial driving privileges.

What’s Included

  • Vision and hearing test
  • Blood pressure and pulse check
  • Urinalysis (not drug screening)
  • Physical exam (heart, lungs, spine, etc.)
