DOT Physical Exams

Learn All About DOT Physicals

Drivers with a commercial driver's license (CDL) must undertake a physical examination according to the regulations of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. It is necessary for a qualified medical professional to perform the examination based on the specific requirements of the transportation industry.

Rely on Harold Allen Ferguson, Jr., DO to provide you with a physical examination that will comply with the rules of the FMCSA. Depending on the type of vehicle driven, a DOT drug screen may be required with the physical exam as well.

The reverse side of the mandated DOT medical examination has a form that's entitled 'Physical Examination of Drivers' and provides a summary of the regulated procedures and protocols.

If you are a CDL driver who has physically qualified to operate a motor vehicle, you must carry a valid 'Medical Examiner's Certificate.'
