Are there any drivers on here that have taken and passed a sleep apnea test.
From what I have been told, everybody fails it. I know there are genuine cases, my son in law is one of them, and getting tested and the machine was the best thing that ever happened to him.
Can I lie to the doctor at my DOT physical for trucking school?

either way, let's try to remember that once we sign on that proverbial dotted line, we swear/attest that everything is true and correct.
now if found the driver is a diabetic, and hey, maybe he went into a diabetic shock/coma, which caused the accident, i can assure you that they will look up his application form, his DOT physical form as well.
no, i don;t need a cubicle of khaki pants or a polo shirt to read the fate of that driver, for lying on a federal form.
does everyone disclose everything..??
no, but i know i did, and thankfully, i had no health issues, even a darned good BMI.
in the end, is it worth the legal issues, in the event of a serious injury or death accident?
the ramifications of that drivers future are etched into stone at that point.
blackballed for lying, falsifying a federal document(s), most likely a big fine, and if you read most applications, jail time.
hey, the o/p is going to do what he wants, seems to me he has no self respect, let alone any morals or ethic's.
i know one thing for sure, i would NOT want to be in his shoes, should he wreck, and they crawl into his butt hole, all the way up to his brains.....cuz ya'll know, that's what even a cheap attorney will do.....and the really great attorneys..???

I don't pretend to know how it all works, but from what I understand they only test for certain drugs or medications that automatically disqualifies you, and most others, prescription or not does not show up, maybe yours was close enough to be flagged, who knows.
