Does the DOT have a regulation for a truck driver waiting a year after having a stroke?

The Department of Transportation (DOT) does not have a specific regulation mandating a one-year waiting period for truck drivers after experiencing a stroke. However, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) requires drivers to be medically evaluated and certified by a qualified medical examiner. The decision regarding medical fitness to drive is typically based on individual assessments, including the severity of the stroke and recovery progress, rather than a fixed time frame.
