The items required for a driver's license physical examination are as follows: 1. Height: For large buses, tractors, etc., the height requirement is above 155 cm, while for medium-sized buses, it is above 150 cm. 2. Vision: For urban buses, medium-sized buses, and above, the vision requirement is 5.0; for other vehicle types, it is 4.9. 3. Color blindness: No red-green color blindness. 4. Hearing: Ability to discern the direction of sound at 50 cm with both ears. 5. Physical integrity: Upper limbs with complete thumbs and at least three fingers on each hand, normal lower limb motor function, and no motor dysfunction in the torso or neck.

Last time I accompanied my friend to the driving school for a medical check-up, I found the process was actually quite simple. The main part was reading the eye chart to test naked-eye vision. My friend wore glasses, so the doctor specifically checked the corrected vision. Then there was a small booth for hearing tests, where the doctor rubbed fingers behind you to check directional recognition. The most interesting part was identifying number patterns in a colorful booklet to test for color blindness. The doctor also had you stand straight to measure height, stretch out limbs to check for obvious disabilities, and finally squat and stand to examine mobility. The whole process took about ten minutes—just remember to bring your ID card and glasses. Oh, and nowadays many vehicle management offices have self-service medical check-up machines, which are even more convenient.

The driver's license physical exam is really not that complicated, just a few basic checks. When I renewed my license last year, they first tested my vision - you need 4.9 or above to pass, so remember to wear properly prescribed glasses if you're nearsighted. Then they checked hearing by having me wear headphones to identify sound directions, and used a small flashlight to test eye reflexes. The color vision test involved identifying shapes made of colored dots, not just recognizing traffic lights. The doctor had me extend my arms and lift my legs to check motor functions, and finally took a quick height measurement. The whole process took just five minutes, but if you fail the exam you'll need to get rechecked at designated hospitals - so I recommend not waiting until the deadline.

As a doctor frequently involved in driving test physical examinations, the core items consist of five key areas: Vision test requires both eyes to meet standards either unaided or with correction; Hearing must discern sound direction from 50cm away; Color recognition uses ishihara plates; Limbs need intact thumbs on both hands with normal squat-stand capability; Height must match vehicle type. Reminder: Avoid wearing colored contacts before testing, hypertensive patients should take medication for control, and those with scoliosis should bring medical records for reference.
