AI Overview
Overview of DOT Physical Examinations
A Department of Transportation (DOT) physical examination is a health assessment mandated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) for commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers. This examination ensures that each driver is capable and healthy enough to safely perform the demanding duties associated with operating a commercial vehicle. The primary goal is to enhance road safety by preventing accidents caused by physical health issues.
Who Needs a DOT Physical?
- Commercial Drivers: All commercial drivers who operate vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating over 10,000 pounds must undergo this physical examination.
- Interstate Bus Drivers: Drivers who operate vehicles that carry more than 15 passengers, including the driver, interstate.
- Hazardous Material Transporters: Those who transport hazardous materials that require safety permits due to the quantity.
Components of a DOT Physical
The DOT physical covers various health checks to assess a driver’s physical and mental capabilities:
- Vision Test: Drivers must have at least 20/40 acuity in each eye with or without correction and a horizontal visual field of at least 70 degrees in the horizontal meridian in each eye.
- Hearing Test: Drivers must be able to hear a forced whisper from a distance of at least five feet with or without a hearing aid.
- Blood Pressure/Pulse Rate: Assesses cardiovascular health and the potential for hypertension.
- Urinalysis: Screens for underlying medical conditions like diabetes and kidney disorders.
- Physical Examination: Involves the examination of multiple systems in the body including neurological, musculoskeletal, respiratory, and psychiatric systems to ensure no impairment that could hinder driving ability.
Validity and Certification
Once a driver passes the DOT physical, they receive a DOT medical certificate which is typically valid for up to two years. However, if a condition is found that requires monitoring (such as hypertension), the medical certificate may be issued for a shorter period.
Preparing for a DOT Physical
Drivers should prepare for their DOT physical by:
- Gathering Health Information: Bring a list of current medications and information on any diagnosed conditions.
- Wearing Proper Attire: Wear loose clothing for the physical exam, and bring any necessary corrective lenses or hearing aids.
- Staying Informed: Be aware of how certain medical conditions might affect the ability to pass the physical.
A DOT physical is a crucial step for the safety of both the commercial driver and other road users. By ensuring medical fitness, these exams help maintain high safety standards in the transportation industry.

Local Area Info: Tennessee State Route 55
State Route 55 (SR 55) is an east-west highway in Middle Tennessee. The road begins at SR 50 in Lynchburg and ends at U.S. Route 70S (US 70S) and SR 380 in McMinnville. The current length is 53.40 mi (85.9 km). SR 55 heads northeast from Lynchburg to Tullahoma as a two-lane road. In Tullahoma, the route runs concurrent with US 41A. From here, SR 55 heads northeast as a multilane highway to Manchester, where it intersects US 41 and Interstate 24 (I-24). The route continues northeast, serving Summitville and Morrison before it reaches McMinnville.
SR 55 begins at an intersection with SR 50 in Lynchburg, Moore County, heading northeast on two-lane undivided Fayetteville Highway, a primary state route. Past the terminus, Fayetteville Highway continues as part of SR 50 toward Fayetteville. From the western terminus, SR 55 heads through a mix of farm fields and woods with some development, crossing the East Fork Mulberry Creek. The road intersects the eastern terminus of SR 129 and becomes Majors Boulevard, running past a few businesses. The route curves to the east-northeast and gains a center left-turn lane as it passes through residential areas with some commercial development to the north of downtown Lynchburg. SR 55 becomes Lynchburg Highway and turns northeast, crossing the East Fork Mulberry Creek and passing to the northwest of the Jack Daniel Distillery. The road narrows to two lanes and runs through wooded areas to the east of the creek. The creek heads farther to the west and the route continues through farm fields with some trees and development, coming to an intersection with the southern terminus of SR 82. Past this intersection, SR 55 heads north-northeast through farmland with some woods and homes. The road bends north and enters more wooded areas with some fields, making a turn to the east.
Farther east, SR 55 leaves Lynchburg/Moore County and enters Tullahoma in Coffee County, where it becomes Wilson Avenue and runs through more woodland with some farm fields. The road passes to the north of residential neighborhoods and reaches an intersection with SR 130. At this point, SR 130 joins SR 55 for a concurrency and the highway widens to a five-lane road with a center left-turn lane, running near more homes. The road narrows to three lanes and continues east into commercial areas, curving northeast and coming to a junction with US 41A (SR 16). At this point, SR 55 and SR 130 turn southeast to join US 41A (SR 16) on North Jackson Street, a five-lane road with a center left-turn lane that is lined with businesses. The road passes through downtown Tullahoma and becomes South Jackson Street upon crossing Lincoln Street. The highway runs past a mix of homes and businesses before SR 55 and SR 130 split from US 41A (SR 16) at Carroll Street. Here, SR 130 turns southwest onto West Carroll Street and SR 55 turns northeast onto East Carroll Street. SR 55 becomes a four-lane undivided road and comes to a bridge over CSX's Chattanooga Subdivision railroad line before it runs past businesses as a five-lane road with a center left-turn lane. The road crosses a railroad spur and becomes a four-lane divided highway that continues through commercial areas as it runs a short distance to the southeast of the Caney Fork and Western Railroad. The route passes through a mix of residential and commercial development and wooded areas before it leaves Tullahoma and becomes New Manchester Highway.
