What Does a Driving Physical Examination Include?
1 Answers
The physical examination includes height, vision, color discrimination, hearing, upper limbs, and lower limbs. The specific details of the driving physical examination are as follows: Height Examination: Applicants for large buses, tractors, city buses, large trucks, or trolleybuses must be at least 155 cm tall. Applicants for medium-sized buses must be at least 150 cm tall. This is the first step in the driving physical examination. Vision Examination: Applicants for large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, large trucks, trolleybuses, or trams must have uncorrected or corrected visual acuity of at least 5.0 on the logarithmic visual acuity chart. For other vehicle types, uncorrected or corrected visual acuity must be at least 4.9. Color Discrimination Examination: Applicants must not have red-green color blindness. This requirement aligns with the vision examination in the driving physical. Hearing Examination: Applicants must be able to distinguish the direction of sound from a tuning fork placed 50 cm away from each ear. Upper and Lower Limbs Examination: Applicants must have both thumbs intact, with at least three fingers functional on each hand, and normal limb and finger movement. Lower limb movement must also be normal. For manual transmission vehicles, the difference in leg length must not exceed 5 cm. For automatic transmission vehicles, the right lower limb must be fully functional.
