North Loup, NE DOT Physical - What You Need to Know

A DOT physical examination is an all-encompassing health check mandated by the Department of Transportation for every commercial motor vehicle driver.

Success leads to obtaining a DOT medical certificate, which is essential for keeping a valid CDL under FMCSA rules.
