Can I lie to the doctor at my DOT physical for trucking school?

Regulations always wrong according to cheaters.

 

a government badge and DOT polo shirt would suit you nicely. I’m dead serious, your passion for driver safety and legislation screams khaki pants and cubical at top decibel...

 

I hate liars. This profession has went to crap.

 

Plenty of good jobs in another field out there.
Just remember when that wreck happens they gonna look over everything including dot physical & medical history.

 

So if instead of driving class A, let’s say I drive Uber. Hypothetically, I have all of those “health problems” you’re concerned with. But instead of crashing my rig I crash my Chevy Suburban and kill the same number of people. Does your over legislation work then? Where is the line?? I feel like the argument is going way over your head. Nobody wants a road littered with sick drivers. But the line between necessary legislation and over legislation gets blurred more daily. Blatant cheating in the system is unacceptable sure. But you’re talking in a lot of hypotheticals and making sweeping, blanket generalizations for drivers you’ve never met or examined which to me is foolish. Widen your narrow scope on this entire debate and see that nobody wants an industry full of sick drivers any more than they want a dead industry due to unnecessary over legislation

 

So you are saying sleep apnea, hbp & diabetes all rolled into one is ok???? But you won't sleep while they are driving????

 

Its ok you implying they are safe& that it's the regulations fault

 

I’m saying I’m not a doctor. And neither are you. And quite frankly neither is the OP. Let a doctor make the decision using a fair and unbiased set of rules and guidelines. That’s the debate at hand. Parity in a system rigged against the driver and the driving industry. You’re not qualified to decide who is or isn’t fit for duty based on an internet post. This debate is completely lost on you. All you’re doing is arguing your misinformed opinions over and again...

 

Yep.

 

How is it fair when they & you lie on the form????
