A certified medical examiner, listed on the National Registry, conducts this evaluation. Success in the examination grants drivers a DOT medical card, essential for a valid CDL per FMCSA rules. If other DOT agency regulations apply to you and you need help understanding which DOT exam is necessary, call us at 800-221-4291.
