abstract: This document updates and simplifies the medical examination form that is currently used to determine the physical qualification of commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers operating in interstate commerce.  The FMCSA takes this action in response to numerous requests from medical examiners to update and simplify the medical examination form that is currently used.  This action is intended to reduce the incidence of errors on such forms and to provide more uniform medical examinations of CMV drivers engaged in interstate commerce.  The current Federal physical qualification standards tested by medical examiners and recorded on the form will not be revised in this rulemaking.
