I am in good health and the medical card is not the issue. I can pass a physical any day of the week.
Not following the rules is also not the reason I ask.
The issue is UNDERSTANDING the rules. Specifically as they apply to a farmer driving a semi and weather or not I need the medical exemption to keep my CDL vs. getting the physical when I can't drive out of state anyway (whilst in the act of farming activities).
I'm sure I understand all this, its just that I don't think many others do because my neighbors are falling all over themselves to get a physical when they don't need it. AGAIN..NOT A BAD IDEA TO GET A PHYSICAL...I get it...the question is WHY???? when they don't need it to comply?
As far as tractor related, I use this same truck to haul old tractors and machinery all the time and often out of state, but that's a whole different discussion I didn't want to muddy the water with at this time.
