  3. What to Expect During a DOT Physical Exam The Department of Transportation (DOT) is responsible for regulating the safety of the American transportation system. As part of this mission, they require that certain employees pass a physical exam every two years, provided they are in great health. The purpose of the DOT physical exam is to ensure that you are medically fit to perform the duties of your job. The exam includes a review of your medical history, a physical exam, and a vision test. The exam will begin with a review of your medical history. You will be asked questions about your overall health, any current medications you’re taking, and any pre-existing medical conditions you have.

  4. How to Prepare for a DOT Physical Exam The best way to ensure that you pass your DOT physical exam is to prepare beforehand. Here are a few steps you can take to ensure you’re ready for your exam: • Schedule an appointment with your doctor. Make sure to schedule your appointment at least two weeks in advance. That way, your doctor will have enough time to review your medical records and make sure you’re ready for the exam. • Get your medical records in order. Make sure to bring your medical records to your appointment. This includes any medications you’re taking, any pre-existing medical conditions, and any vision correction you need.

  5. • Eat a healthy diet and exercise regularly. Eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly can help to improve your overall health. This can help to prepare you for your DOT physical exam and may also help to lower your blood pressure. • Drink plenty of water before the exam as you will be providing a urine sample for a urinalysis to assess kidney function. A drug test is not required for the DOT medical health card. A drug test is required for both initial employment and continued employment. • Do not consume any stimulants.  Avoid caffeine or energy drinks prior to the DOT exam as these may lead to high blood pressure. • Get plenty of rest before your exam. Make sure to get plenty of rest the night before your exam. This can help to ensure that you’re alert and focused during your exam.
