Physical Exams in Arlington TX for Commercial Vehicle Drivers

In order to obtain a commercial vehicle license, you will need to undergo a Department of Transportation (DOT) physical. Like a standard physical, the DOT physical is a general exam that focuses on your overall health and wellbeing. However, these exams have more of an emphasis on your body’s fitness for operating vehicles for extended periods of time. Before you can obtain a commercial vehicle license, the DMV needs to be certain that you can withstand the physical and mental demands of the job. This is for your safety and the safety of others on the road.

If you are in need of a DOT physical, call (817) 799-7273 today or just stop by Urgentology Care for a walk-in visit.

You will need to undergo a DOT physical if you:

Wish to operate a vehicle that can carry 15 people or more
Are paid to operate a vehicle that can carry 8 people or more
Use a vehicle to transport hazardous materials
Operate a vehicle that has a gross weight of over 10,000 lbs.

The DOT physical is valid for up to 24 months, so you will need to undergo a new one every 2 years if want to maintain your commercial driver’s license.
