Frisco, NC DOT Physical - What You Need to Know

DOT physical exams are thorough medical checks mandated by the Department of Transportation for drivers of commercial vehicles. These exams are vital to confirm drivers have the physical, mental, and emotional ability to drive on public roads safely. A certified medical examiner (CME) on the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners (NRCME) conducts the test. A passing result earns a DOT Medical Certificate, required for holding a CDL under FMCSA rules. For inquiries about specific DOT exams, call 800-221-4291.

During your exam, the medical examiner will complete a thorough health assessment to determine if you meet the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) medical standards. The process typically includes:

What Will Fail a DOT Physical?

Medical Conditions That Can Fail a DOT Physical

  • Vision & Hearing: Failing to meet 20/40 vision in each eye (even with correction), unable to identify traffic signals' colors, or hearing loss not allowing recognition of a forced whisper at 5 feet can cause disqualification.
  • Blood Pressure & Cardiac Conditions: Unchecked hypertension (≥180/110 mmHg), past heart attack, stroke, uncontrolled angina, or a defibrillator without appropriate clearance are grounds for disqualification.
  • Diabetes: Out-of-control diabetes causing regular hypoglycemia or complications like neuropathy and impaired sight can hinder safe driving.
  • Sleep Apnea & Respiratory Issues: Untreated sleep apnea leading to daytime drowsiness or severe respiratory diseases impairing oxygenation could disqualify.
  • Neurological Disorders: Conditions such as epilepsy (unless exempted), abrupt consciousness losses, dizziness, or unmanageable tremors might disqualify.
  • Substance Misuse: Active illegal drug use, alcohol dependence, or prescription misuse affecting driving capability is disqualifying.
  • Mental & Cognitive Disorders: Severe, unmanaged psychiatric conditions (e.g., schizophrenia, bipolar disorder with recent episodes) or cognitive deficits that impair judgment and reaction are disqualifying.

Issues resulting in temporary disqualification may be addressed by providing medical documentation, like managed blood pressure. Conversely, untreated seizure disorders or defibrillators often result in permanent disqualification under FMCSA guidelines.

Saved My CDL!

This is by far the easiest way to get my lab work ordered and paid for. The phone calls are short and to the point. They don’t try to push extra sales on you and when I walk in to the clinic I simply show my donor pass and with in a matter of minutes I’m done. I will continue to use ADT in the future.
