AI Overview
Overview of DOT Physical Examinations
A Department of Transportation (DOT) physical examination is a health assessment mandated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) for commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers. This examination ensures that each driver is capable and healthy enough to safely perform the demanding duties associated with operating a commercial vehicle. The primary goal is to enhance road safety by preventing accidents caused by physical health issues.
Who Needs a DOT Physical?
- Commercial Drivers: All commercial drivers who operate vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating over 10,000 pounds must undergo this physical examination.
- Interstate Bus Drivers: Drivers who operate vehicles that carry more than 15 passengers, including the driver, interstate.
- Hazardous Material Transporters: Those who transport hazardous materials that require safety permits due to the quantity.
Components of a DOT Physical
The DOT physical covers various health checks to assess a driver’s physical and mental capabilities:
- Vision Test: Drivers must have at least 20/40 acuity in each eye with or without correction and a horizontal visual field of at least 70 degrees in the horizontal meridian in each eye.
- Hearing Test: Drivers must be able to hear a forced whisper from a distance of at least five feet with or without a hearing aid.
- Blood Pressure/Pulse Rate: Assesses cardiovascular health and the potential for hypertension.
- Urinalysis: Screens for underlying medical conditions like diabetes and kidney disorders.
- Physical Examination: Involves the examination of multiple systems in the body including neurological, musculoskeletal, respiratory, and psychiatric systems to ensure no impairment that could hinder driving ability.
Validity and Certification
Once a driver passes the DOT physical, they receive a DOT medical certificate which is typically valid for up to two years. However, if a condition is found that requires monitoring (such as hypertension), the medical certificate may be issued for a shorter period.
Preparing for a DOT Physical
Drivers should prepare for their DOT physical by:
- Gathering Health Information: Bring a list of current medications and information on any diagnosed conditions.
- Wearing Proper Attire: Wear loose clothing for the physical exam, and bring any necessary corrective lenses or hearing aids.
- Staying Informed: Be aware of how certain medical conditions might affect the ability to pass the physical.
A DOT physical is a crucial step for the safety of both the commercial driver and other road users. By ensuring medical fitness, these exams help maintain high safety standards in the transportation industry.

Local Area Info: Marshall Creek, Texas
Original residents began moving into the small area in the late 1960s, attracted to inexpensive country living. The town had no formal government until it was incorporated in 1983 to prevent possible annexation by neighboring cities which would bring higher tax rates and more strict regulations. The town took the name of a nearby park operated by the United States Army Corps of Engineers. Originally designed as an affordable location to purchase land for a manufactured (or mobile) homes, the area has few site-built structures. In late November 2007, Marshall Creek consolidated with neighboring Roanoke, Texas.
Incorporated as a general law municipality in 1983, Marshall Creek has remained, by virtue of its small borders, relatively out of the public spotlight. However, internal strife has caused the town to become unstable. According to published reports, bookkeeping by the government was spotty, resulting in losses from unpaid property taxes the town failed to assess. In 1996, the government fell behind in payments to the Trinity River Authority, which removes and treats sewage for the town.
More recently, after the September 11 attacks on the United States, the small town, with its equivalently small police force, lost a sizable contract to patrol nearby Marshall Creek Park. Instead, the Army Corps of Engineers awarded that contract to nearby Trophy Club, which had a larger and more experienced force. In addition, in 2002, police officers who had written traffic tickets for the city on nearby US Highway 377 were revealed to have expired peace officer certifications, thus rendering those citations invalid. The town was forced to repay approximately US$4,300 in traffic fines.
