No, a CDL cannot be maintained without a valid CDL medical card. Federal regulations require commercial drivers to have an up-to-date medical certification to ensure they are physically capable of operating a commercial vehicle safely.
The CDL medical card verifies that a driver meets the necessary health standards for the job. If the card expires or is not renewed, the CDL may be suspended or revoked. To avoid any disruptions, drivers must keep track of their DOT medical exam deadlines and renew their certification as required. Staying compliant allows commercial drivers to continue working and maintain their CDL without issues.
