Oswego, MT DOT Physical - What You Need to Know

A DOT physical is a detailed health evaluation mandated by the Department of Transportation for all commercial vehicle operators.

A certified medical examiner listed on the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners conducts the DOT physical. Passing it enables drivers to obtain a DOT medical card, essential for maintaining a valid CDL under FMCSA guidelines.
