What happens at a physical test?

There is a standard form all physicians use for the DOT physical . http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/documents/safetyprograms/Medical-Report.pdf

But you're right . Some carriers will reject dri8vers that meet DOT standards . Drivers have been rejected for failing agility tests , having blood pressure that is above 140/90 ,or having blood in their urine amongotherreasons .

 

Just make sure you have on clean under garments...(oh the humiliation of it...)

 

watch out for the rubber glove

 

dont have a lot of coffee or anything with caffeine in it, it may cause your blood pressure to go up... water is good lol

 

At one physical, the generic docter had me lay down on that bed thingy...and then started feeling my stomach area for who knows what...well I'm ticklish...so I kept laughing...and they kept having to start over again until i layed still...

From outside in the hallway i suppose it must of sounded pretty odd...

One of those 3's company moments where one might interpit things the wrong way...

 

At C1 it was the typical BP, vision, Pee test, and getting your junk jiggled while you coughed.

the Doc was kinda cute, I thought about baseball...

 

If you somke,don't smoke at least a day before the test. And drink plenty of water before the test as well. I found this will keep you pb low, and your sugar low as well..
