About DOT physicals

It is mandated by federal guidelines that every commercial driver passes the DOT physical exam. The purpose of this test it to check whether a potential driver is fit enough to drive safely at the present time as well as in the foreseeable future. Passing the exam successfully usually means you only have to take the exam in 24 months time, although in some instances this period might be shortened, in case serious health issues could arise in the future.

Some of the basics DOT physical requirements needed to pass:

​

• With or without vision corrections, each eye, as well as both eyes combined, need to have 20/40 vision.

• Must be capable of distinguishing colors found on traffic signals.

• Hearing needs to be good enough to notice a forced whisper at a minimum distance of 5 feet.

• Your blood pressure must be under 140/90. Prescription medication may be used to control blood pressure.
