DOT Physical
A DOT physical is a medical examination required for commercial drivers to ensure they are physically and mentally fit to safely operate commercial motor vehicles. It evaluates vision, hearing, blood pressure, heart health, neurological function, and overall medical history to meet Department of Transportation standards.
Why It May Be Required
DOT physicals are required to protect public safety by reducing the risk of accidents caused by medical conditions. They help identify health issues early, ensure drivers can handle the physical demands of the job, and confirm compliance with federal transportation regulations.
