Wahpeton, ND DOT Physical - What You Need to Know

A DOT physical is a thorough health evaluation mandated by the Department of Transportation (DOT) for all commercial motor vehicle (CMV) operators. This assessment ensures that drivers are in a condition suitable for handling large vehicles on public roadways. Conducted by a certified medical examiner (CME) listed on the National Registry of Certified Medical Examiners (NRCME), passing this exam grants drivers a DOT medical certificate (Medical Examiners Certificate or DOT medical card), essential for keeping a valid CDL per FMCSA rules. For assistance with DOT physical requirements, contact 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:
