Medical examiner training must be completed before taking the FMCSA Medical Examiner Certification Test. This training, based on the FMCSA core curriculum, covers essential knowledge about commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers, including the physical and mental demands of their job, which are not typically included in standard healthcare education.

Test Taking Tip
CMV driver medical certification is based on comprehensive physical assessment of driver health. This includes the medical examiner’s informed judgment about the potential impact of a single medical condition or multiple existing medical conditions on the driver’s ability to operate a CMV safely in interstate commerce.
