∙ 9y agoAll states are transitioning to that system. If your state already has, it will need to be.
You must have a current DOT medical card to maintain an active CDL in EVERY state. That is a federal law.
No, you can't get a DOT medical card if you have a defibrillator.
Usually, no, although that's something which could vary by state. You would need to contact your state's DMV 1: to see if they even have a chauffeur licence (not all states do) and 2: to see if a DOT medical card is required.
Laws on this vary by state. Inquire with your state's DMV.
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.
You can't. A physical examination is required to get a DOT medical card, and that cannot be done online.
I'm not sure of any minimum age restrictions, but it's a bit pointless to get if you're under 18... you need a DOT medical card for any vehicle requiring a CDL, and for any CMV with a GVW of 10,001 - 26,000 lbs. operating across state lines. In PA, you can't do either at 16 or 17.You don't need a permit or a license to actually get a medical card.
Until they have all states certifying their drivers and getting medical card information into CDLIS, you should.
You need that in EVERY state.
Yes anytime your driving a vehicle that requires a health card you need to have your health card with you
Yes, depending on the state a driver may also need a DOT Physical Exam and carry the DOT Medical Examination Card with them. One may also need to upgrade their driver's license to a Class A or B.
