DOT Physical: A thorough checkup mandated by DOT for all drivers of commercial motor vehicles. This evaluation confirms that drivers possess the physical, mental, and emotional capability to handle large vehicles on public roads safely. A certified medical examiner from the NRCME conducts the exam. Upon clearing it, drivers obtain a DOT medical certificate, essential for maintaining a CDL license as per FMCSA norms. For assistance on specific DOT physical queries, contact us at 800-221-4291.
Owner Operators- DOT requires all owner-operators to enroll in a consortium so they are included in a compliant random testing pool because they cannot randomly test themselves.
Small Employers-Some smaller companies may not have enough drivers or safety-sensitive employees to maintain their own statistically valid random pool. Therefore, by joining a consortium, they are combined with other companies to form a large pool that meets DOT testing requirements.
Large Employers-Larger fleets may manage their own random pool but often use a consortium/TPA to outsource the process, reduce administrative burden, and ensure strict compliance.
