A DOT Physical Examination is a comprehensive medical evaluation required by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) for all commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers. This examination ensures that drivers meet the physical qualifications necessary to safely operate commercial vehicles on public roads.

The DOT physical is conducted by licensed medical examiners listed on the FMCSA National Registry. Upon successful completion, drivers receive a Medical Examiner's Certificate (MEC) valid for up to 24 months, depending on their health status.

BlueHive connects employers with our nationwide network of over 20,000 certified DOT medical examiners, ensuring your drivers can complete their physicals quickly and conveniently at locations near their routes or homes.

FMCSA Launches Motus — New U.S. DOT Registration System With Biometric Identity Verification

high

FMCSA rolled out Motus, the U.S. DOT Registration System, replacing the legacy network of loosely connected registration applications for motor carriers, brokers, freight forwarders, and other regulated entities. Motus introduces mandatory identity verification using government-issued IDs and digital facial scans plus third-party business validation, targeting the "chameleon" and reincarnated carriers that exploited the old low-validation framework. Carriers need a Login.gov account to access Motus and must use the same account previously tied to their FMCSA Portal access to retain their registration data.
