EXAMINER'S CALL
The checker reads your verdict. The Kit gets you through the exam: documentation packets for your condition, the two 45-day form clocks run as a calendar, the official medication form packet, waiting-period calendars, failure recovery, and the examiner phone script.
Federal source: Medical Examination Report form MCSA-5875 (urinalysis: specific gravity, protein, blood, sugar); 49 CFR 391.41 · Rules checked October 2026
The urinalysis at a DOT physical is a screening dipstick for protein, blood, and sugar (plus specific gravity) — it is part of the medical examination, and it is not the DOT drug test (different regime entirely; see the clarifier page). Abnormal findings do not carry published pass/fail numbers; they trigger the examiner's follow-up judgment: sugar points toward the diabetes analysis, protein or blood toward kidney and urinary evaluation, and the examiner may certify short, defer, or require documentation depending on the whole picture.
A flagged dipstick is a question, not a verdict. The drivers who handle it best arrive with the follow-up already done — recent labs from their own clinician — instead of waiting to be sent for it.
If you know a finding is coming (diabetics especially), bring recent lab work from your own clinician addressing it. If the examiner defers you for follow-up, the second-chance page lays out the sequence.
This question is NOT decided by federal text — the text leaves it to the examiner's judgment. Any site that prints you a pass or a fail here is inventing law. What moves this outcome is documentation, and that is what this page gives you.
Only a certified medical examiner on the National Registry can certify you. FreightVerdict reads the published federal standards — it does not certify, diagnose, or treat, and nothing here is medical advice.
