I do. As for whether you do or not, that depends on your situation. If you have a CDL, you need one. If you operate a commercial vehicle of 10,000 lbs. GVWR or greater - even without a CDL - you need one. For RVs, farm vehicles, and other types exempt from requiring a CDL by the federal government, that's a state level matter, and your state's DOT would be the ones to determine this.
You need that in EVERY state.
Yes you can buy the green dot card without putting money on it. To be able to use it for purchases or paying bills etc, you will need to have money added onto that card.
No, you can't get a DOT medical card if you have a defibrillator.
Yes anytime your driving a vehicle that requires a health card you need to have your health card with you
All states are transitioning to that system. If your state already has, it will need to be.
You must have a current DOT medical card to maintain an active CDL in EVERY state. That is a federal law.
A Green Dot Card is a prepaid reloadable debit card that can be used anywhere MasterCard of Visa is accepted. However, there is no way to transfer money from one green dot card to another.
Until they have all states certifying their drivers and getting medical card information into CDLIS, you should.
You can't. A physical examination is required to get a DOT medical card, and that cannot be done online.
Yes. You can identify as "intrastate exempted" without one, but you won't be able to operate a CMV until you have a valid DOT medical card.
Yes.
A medical card is required for the operation of commercial vehicles with a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of more than 10,000 lbs. If your state requires registration of DOT medical cards, then you must do this if your job involves operating a vehicle for which a medical card must be carried by the driver, even if a CDL is not required.
