Everyone who drives must pass a D.O.T. (Department of Transportation) Physical Exam at least every two years. We chose to have ours done by our family doctor.
Nothing to it really. We both passed.
There are several things that drivers have to look out for. The exams are fairly extensive (at least ours were), and you have to meet certain requirements in order to pass. Probably the two most common reasons for failing are high blood pressure or having the take insulin for diabetes. (although there are provisions to be certified for less than the 2 years if your numbers are too high the first time around.)
We are both glad that is over with and we don't have to worry about the exams for almost 2 years. Neither of us has a history of high blood pressure. We know staying healthy on the road will be a challenge, but are thankful to be in reasonably good health at the moment.
