I do. As for whether you do or not, that depends on your situation. If you have a CDL, you need one. If you operate a commercial vehicle of 10,000 lbs. GVWR or greater - even without a CDL - you need one. For RVs, farm vehicles, and other types exempt from requiring a CDL by the federal government, that's a state level matter, and your state's DOT would be the ones to determine this.

A medical card is required for the operation of commercial vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of more than 10,000 lbs. If your state requires registration of DOT medical cards, then you must do this if your job involves operating a vehicle for which a medical card must be carried by the driver, even if a CDL is not required.
