Expiring medical card

It would depend on if the DMV listed as disqualified or suspended, those would show up on your DMV record when a company pulled your record. That might look bad. Call them back and ask them.

 

i strongly advise getting the medical redone if you plan on going into the industry soon or again. you dont have to get it done in your home town just by a one certified to do one and fax a copy of it to them before it expires. If you dont have the money for it than you obviously dont have that option. it may effect the way a company judges you though.

 

I would do what he said that way its current and this prevents the state from de-rating you to a "commoners" licence. Most concentra's can do CDL examinations and are used by the Major fleets.

 

You can get a medical card anywhere and most states you can self certify online on the states DMV website you'll find a link on the CDL page.

Google... anytown, state DOT physical

Then try to find a nearby walkin clinic in the results.

$40-$50 bucks, problem solved.

 

Yeah you can just go to a Concentra or somewhere and get a physical. Don't have to be emplyed..

But...judging from what you said the letter said..which is odd to me because you don't have to have a valid ME card to have a valid CDL, you just cant use your CDL without an ME card....but the letter said it will just suspend your CDL version of your license, which means you will still have a VALID drivers license, it just won't be a CDL. Nothing should be on your record as to being suspended or revoked or what not.

But, it still doesn't make sense. I still just say screw it, go pay the $40 or whatever it is to do a physical, get a current ME card.

 

What state is your CDL in?

CA does just like the letter says.

Just find a clinic and have them do a DOT physical it costs about $50 and send the paperwork to DMV

 

so does Ohio, $3.50 to re-instate.
