    When a company asks you to bring a medical examination report and a medical card to orientation, are they referring to my paper work from when I did my DOT physical?

    No, I just loved the name of the highway and it’s urban legends. I’m a newbie. Got my CDL this month.

    Take your DOT Medical Card and the long form you received at the physical.

    Yes. Long form too if you got it.

    More than likely you will be stuffed with a physical again from THEIR OWN DOT Doctors.

    Physicals have no value to companies. They will impose costs and time giving you a physical AGAIN. AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.

    I had a physical done once three days prior to orientation. Happenstance for renewal.

    They sent me to their doc for a physical anyway.
