What Is A DOT Physical?
A DOT physical is a medical exam required by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). It confirms that commercial drivers meet the physical requirements to safely operate a commercial motor vehicle. A passing exam earns you a Medical Examiner’s Certificate (medical card), valid for up to 24 months.
DOT physicals are typically required for:
- CDL holders and applicants
- Truck, logging, and delivery drivers
- School bus and passenger bus drivers
- Drivers of vehicles over 10,000 lbs or hauling hazardous materials
- Other safety-sensitive commercial driving positions
What To Expect At Your DOT Physical
Your exam follows FMCSA guidelines and typically takes 30 minutes or less. It includes:
- Review of your health history and current medications
- Blood pressure and pulse check
- Vision screening (with glasses or contacts if you wear them)
- Hearing screening
- Urinalysis (a dipstick screen for general health — this is not a drug test)
- A hands-on physical exam, including spine, joints, and reflexes
If you meet the standards, you leave with your medical card. If something needs follow-up, Dr. Newman will explain exactly what it means and what you need to do next.
What To Bring
Coming prepared helps your visit go quickly and avoids a return trip:
- Your driver’s license
- Glasses, contacts, or hearing aids you use while driving
- A list of your current medications and doses
- Records for any ongoing conditions (for example, recent diabetes labs, cardiology notes, or a CPAP compliance report for sleep apnea)
- Any forms required by your employer
