What is a DOT physical?

A DOT physical is an exam that commercial motor vehicle drivers must complete to receive the medical certificate required for the job. It must be conducted by a certified Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) examiner to comply with FMCSA guidelines. The results determine how long the certificate is valid for, though they often last for up to 24 months.
