What Is a CDL Medical Exam?

A CDL medical exam evaluates whether a commercial driver meets applicable physical qualification standards for operating a commercial motor vehicle.

Medical certification requirements can vary based on the type of commercial driving you perform and the regulations that apply to your operation. The examination considers health factors related to safely performing commercial driving duties.

At The DOT Center, DOT/CDL medical examinations are a primary focus, providing an exam experience centered on professional drivers and their certification needs.

What Should I Bring?

Bring two forms of identification, including your driver's license or another photo ID. You should also bring information about medications you currently take and relevant medical records.

You do not need to bring the standard DOT examination forms. The necessary forms are available at The DOT Center.
