I wouldn't worry about the 10 days prior. That's just to cover there own inability to do things in a timely manner. One thing I would do is fax and email the certificate to them yourself and save the proof. Dont just count on the medical examiner to do it being that your getting down to the wire.

The first chance you get BEFORE it expires get the medical test done. When you get home drive to your nearest DMV to get the paperwork filed and it is fixed immediately.

I watched the nurse fax it and she gave me a confirmation page. I'll still be following up with the DMV but I know it was done and I have proof.

One time years ago we were in a Probate Bind legally and send the revelant documents overnight to Fairbanks from Arkansas. 24 hours later it was still off the coast of Canada halfway to Anchorage from Seattle. It made it in 30 hours, they made allowances to take that paperwork.mc8541ss Thanks this. -
Ha! This should be it's own thread on here. Maybe it is. One of the steps of becoming an owner/operator should be training your wife/brother/mom/dad or whoever to sign your name like you so you can keep the business rolling when mail comes in and needs signing when you're on the road. My wife had to do this recently. I know it will happen again. She didn't like it but that's only because I married a good girl.

It's really dangerous to have people sign stuff with YOUR name on god only knows what documents. I used to watch the wife carefully (And vice versa) when it came to signing stuff while married. We signed nothing one or for both or the other without understanding exactly what will happen after it's done.
Fortunately I can only think of a handful of times where signing was really important and we both were there together. -
Most states will down grade your class a to a 4 wheeler class c. If you don't update your medical card. Thus the reason for medical card.
