DOT EXAM $100.00

Items you will need with you for your DOT exam are listed below:
  • Driver's license as proof of identity
  • Complete list of all current medications and the dosage
  • List of all surgeries, when and where they were performed
TIPS
  1. DO NOT DRINK ENERGY DRINKS or CAFFEINE. That includes coffee, tea, Coke, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Red Bull, AMP, etc. there are too many to list. This is like speed in a can and will raise your blood pressure. The only blood pressure reading that counts is the one taken during your exam!
  2. If you are concerned about having high blood pressure, check it every so often at HyVee or Walmart, etc. and keep track of it. If it's always above 140/90 (either number), that's not good.
  3. There is a urine test, so make sure you have to pee! If you are a diabetic DON'T eat or drink any sugar. When sugar shows up in your urine, you'll need a recent A1c reading.
  4. ANY yes answers requires a detailed written description. If you leave out conditions and get in an accident, you'll face civil penalties.
  5. If you have a CPAP, you need a reading from your doctor that states how often you use the machine.
  6. If you have any heart conditions, those usually require stress tests every two years, some are more frequent, some are less.
  7. If you currently are taking a schedule II narcotic, you likely will not pass.
  8. Chantix (prescription to help stop smoking) is disqualifying.
