    This is a difficult comment for me and to do this is dishonest. I am going to make it very carefully. I never advise dishonesty in any actions someone with a CDL makes. I however will report that some people I know when they see that their medical cards are expiring or they simply want to take a break go to the state DMV and get their CDL changed to the intrastate CDL that does not require a medical. In Virginia it costs $20 bucks. Then all you have to do is get your new physical and change it back. HOWEVER be advised, you CAN NOT legally operate a CMV that requires a CDL until you change this back.
