If you dont your cdl will be automatically downgraded to a standard dl. You can "self certify" as exempt and keep your cdl, (but not drive a cmv leagaly) when you decide to drive again, get a new card and re cert as "non exempt" and provide your card to the dmv. Or just get a new card, certify it and be available at need

tscottme and brian991219 Thank this. -
Go get a physical just in case you want to continue. If not,then who cares.
Here where I am at,the state downgrades my CDL to a regular license and I have to do everything all over again.That's usually how it is with most jurisdictions I am assuming.
Best bet is to ask your local jurisdiction. -
What state? Self Certify

They are telling you right. You can self certify as "Excepted Intrastate" and keep your CDL. If you return to driving, get a new phsical and you are ready to go.
