    I am wanting to persue a career in trucking, but I heard for your dot physical that you have to take a urine test. I'm not saying I have anything to hide or I do drugs, but I get terrified when people are in a restroom with me! No matter how hard I try I can't seem to go even when my own family is in the room!! I guess I'm just wondering if they watch you go to the bathroom during your dot physical!

    They usually do not accompany you into the bathroom. They have you empty your pockets and give you the cup. Then they ask that you do not flush or wash until after you have given them the cup.

    No one goes in with you. You do however leave all your belongings outside. You know, purse, keys etc. They do watch you wash your hands tho. You do your thing, hand them the cup. Watch them seal the bottles, you initial the bottles and that's it. If you can't go, they will give you warm water to drink. Easy.
