What is a DMV examination?

A DMV physical is a medical examination required for Commercial motor vehicle
drivers by the department of Transportation (DOT). A DMV physical may be
required annually or every 2 years while holding a transportation occupation. This
examination evaluates if the driver is able to operate a commercial motor vehicle by
reviewing their medical history, blood pressure, vision, hearing and collecting a urine
sample.
