>>28493490It’s more like doctors who don’t give a shit.
My work would send me to a corporate urgent care that did all of the DOT stuff by the book, but even then if I got the cool Puerto Rican medical assistant like “ahh close enough” and the PA from Da Islands, you could skate on like 2pts on a BP test or an inch on the neck. If you got the bitch doctor, then she’s going to stress you out, take your BP when you have a 110 pulse and then give you a short medical card.
Then there’s the places where you’re recommended by the other old driver who had problems at the corporate place. I got a DOT physical from a chiropractor once that was like “read this 20/20 vision sign from 10ft away, touch your toes, ok you’re good!”
But you can’t fake the DOT physicals like the vaccine cards. Everything is electronic now, so you have to send all the info from the card to the state and it includes a bunch of info from the MD-DO-PA-NP or whoever did it. Maybe the state doesn’t actually check with the doc office to see if it’s legit, I’ve never tried. Most people I’ve talked to have the doctor who doesn’t care.
Dude in the OP though, he def should have records of a sleep test being done.
