Bowman, ND DOT Physical - What You Need to Know

This assessment confirms that drivers are adequately fit physically, mentally, and emotionally to manage substantial vehicles on roadways. Conducted by a certified medical examiner found on the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners, passing it grants a medical certificate necessary for retaining a valid CDL according to FMCSA rules.
