Department Of Transportation (DOT) Physical

A DOT physical is a vital examination required for drivers of commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) to ensure they are fit to operate safely on the road. Conducted according to standards set by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), the exam assesses a driver’s physical, mental, and emotional health. This includes evaluating vision, hearing, blood pressure, and overall physical fitness.

The goal of the DOT physical is to minimize the risk of accidents and ensure that drivers can handle the demanding nature of operating large vehicles like trucks and buses, thereby safeguarding public safety.
