DOT physicals in South Dakota

The FMCSA National Registry lists 253 certified medical examiners accepting exams at 176 locations in South Dakota. The most are in Sioux Falls (25), Brookings (19) and Rapid City (15).

Interstate vs. in-state driving. The federal DOT physical rules apply to interstate commercial drivers. South Dakota may apply its own medical rules to drivers who stay inside the state; check with the South Dakota driver licensing agency. After June 23, 2025, examiners send CDL and CLP exam results to state licensing agencies through the National Registry. How that works.
