No need to carry a DOT Med card anymore?

Carry it anyway just as a precaution.

 

Yes, not all states are up to speed. I had a level 2 last month in Texas and the LEO wanted my medical card.

 

Some states don't put it on your license. Maine for example, does not. This I learned in Kentucky. Glad I carry it.

 

I carry mine anyway, just in case the nitwit at the dmv screws something up with putting my medical card on file with my license, also as stated above, some states are not up to speed yet.

 

I got a level one in KY, she asked for mine, when I reminded her it wasn't required to be in my possession, she said I was right and that the computer she was using didn't have the capability to pull it up. She would have to have someone else pull it up on another computer. I pulled mine out and handed it to her.
Two lessons; first, carry the card anyway! Second, DOT is still stupid! They pass laws that their own officers still can't follow! Am I bashing DOT, yep!

 

I drove a week without a valid cdl this year because Crete faxed the wrong form to the BMV, I found out at home at least,
I ended up having to take my little medical card to the BMV and they made a copy and I was good to go

 

In North Carolina, once you send them the physical, they mail you a letter that says they received it and that it is on file! I also carry that letter!

 

I just got a new one back in June and don't carry it around. Just made sure it was on file at the DMV first. Technically you no longer have to.

 

Wisconsin state patrol say still carry it. another streamlining measure of our government.
