Yes, drivers may carry a legible copy of their medical examination certificate on their person. Section 391.41(a) states that drivers must be physically qualified and carry the original or a photographic copy of the medical examiner’s certificate on their person to demonstrate compliance. Note, however, that drivers who hold a commercial driver’s license (CDL) must have their medical certification on their motor vehicle record.
Photocopies or digital images are generally acceptable in place of original documents for FMCSA compliance, as long as they comply with the standards in 390.31 and 390.32.
