The Department of Transportation requires that certain physical requirements must be met in order to qualify for driving specific vehicles in Minnesota. Starting in 2014 it will be required to be certified in order to perform a physical exam for these drivers. In order to become certified the doctor must have the proper education and pass an exam. This will limit the number of physicians who are able to perform these DOT exams.
