What does a Mass. DOT Physical Evaluate?

Commercial drivers in Massachusetts need updated DOT physicals because they evaluate if individuals are healthy enough to drive large commercial vehicles.

Most DOT exams measure chronic disease indicators including substance use/dependency, vision, blood pressure, blood sugar, and many others. Drivers will need to have these conditions stable and under control in order to effectively secure their renewed CDL.

The Massachusetts DOT physical exams evaluate and measure one’s ability to safely drive a vehicle in the following:

• Vision Test
• Whisper Test
• Blood Pressure Measurement
• Blood Sugar Measurement
