A DOT physical is an in-depth health check mandated by the Department of Transportation for all CMV operators. The examination verifies that these drivers are capable physically, mentally, and emotionally to control large vehicles safely on public roads. Conducted by a registered medical examiner on the NRCME, passing this exam permits drivers to obtain a DOT medical certificate. This is essential for maintaining a valid CDL under FMCSA requirements. For guidance on the correct DOT physical, please call 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.
