It's not a matter of state law - it's a matter of federal law.
A medical is required for anyone:
- If they operate a motor vehicle with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR), gross combination weight rating (GCWR), gross vehicle weight (GCW), or gross combination weight (GCW) of 4,536 kilograms/10,000 lbs or more in interstate commerce.
- If they operate a motor vehicle designed or used to transport more than 15 passengers (including the driver) in interstate commerce.
- If they operate a motor vehicle designed or used to transport between 9 and 15 passengers, for direct compensation, beyond 75 air miles from the driver's normal work-reporting location, in interstate commerce
- If they transport hazardous materials, in a quantity requiring placards, in interstate commerce.
Additionally, to possess a CDL, you must possess a DOT medical card - ipso facto, if the vehicle requires a CDL, whether for interstate or intrastate commerce, the medical card is also required.
