Ensure you're fit to drive with a thorough, efficient exam from certified professionals—

keeping you compliant and healthy on the road.

Paperwork

Upon arrival, clients will need to fill out some forms, including a medical history questionnaire. This helps the examiner understand any existing health conditions, medications, or concerns.

Vital Signs

The medical examiner will take vital signs like blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature to assess your overall health. Blood pressure must typically be under 140/90 to pass, and the examiner will check for any signs of hypertension or other related issues.

Vision Test

You’ll need to pass a vision test, which generally requires 20/40 vision in each eye, with or without correction (glasses or contacts). If you wear corrective lenses, make sure to bring them.

Hearing Test

The examiner will test your hearing by asking you to hear a whisper from a certain distance or using a tuning fork. The standard is that you need to be able to hear at least a forced whisper from about 5 feet away.

Urine Test

A urine test is often required to check for diabetes or any signs of kidney disease. It may also screen for any potential substance abuse.

Physical Examination

The examiner will check your overall physical health. This may include examining your heart and lungs, checking your reflexes, and ensuring your joints and muscles are functioning well. They’ll also assess any conditions like diabetes, sleep apnea, or other health concerns that might impact driving.

Medical Review

Based on the results of the exam, the medical examiner will either clear you to drive, issue a limited certification, or suggest further testing if there are concerns about any health issues. If you have medical conditions like diabetes, epilepsy, or heart disease, you may need additional documentation from your primary care physician or specialists to demonstrate that the condition is well-managed.
