Oh, that sounds fun. Last time I went to the DMV, my license ended up with so many errors on it that I went back twice getting things corrected and my address is still wrong.

This will all change by 2014.CAXPT Thanks this. -
Why all the argueing? Carry a copy of the long form with you problem solved. It's like flatbedding if 1 chain is good 2 is better. Common sense should prevail not all these buts and what ifs.

I think the real question is, is this requirement legal?
And if so, I believe truckers should ban together and fight this.
I'm so sick of regulations and laws that apply to truck drivers that don't apply to other professions?!
I find this requirement to not only be very intrusive, but also allow an employer the opportunity to successfully get away with discriminating against a driver.
Honestly, your employer now knows exactly what you and your medical doctor discussed about you health?
How does this not violate hippa?
What about a driver that has HIV, or knee replacements that wouldn't prevent him or her from doing the job, but now gets released for some other alleged reason?
If a person has a valid dot medical card that should be enough.
I see no reason why your employer should know when your last colonoscopy was, or if you'd been hospitalized for a miscarriage?
Where does it end? I'm just saying.....
