Drivers aged 65 and older must submit a medical report every how many years?
- Five years
- One year ✓
- Three years
- Two years
Answer: B. One year
Drivers aged 65 and older must submit a medical report every year.
Why this is the answer
The handbook groups commercial drivers by age for medical reporting: under 46 every five years, 46 to 64 every three years, and 65 or older every year. That age-based schedule is what makes the yearly report the right answer for a driver 65 or older. The same passage also says that failing to file a medical report can downgrade your licence class, so the reporting schedule is part of keeping the licence.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A. Five years — Five years is the reporting interval for commercial drivers under age 46, not for drivers 65 and older.
- C. Three years — Three years applies to drivers aged 46 to 64, so it does not fit a driver 65 or older.
- D. Two years — The passage gives no two-year medical reporting interval for commercial drivers; the age-based intervals are five, three, or one year.
Remember it
Sort the age brackets in order: younger drivers wait longer, and once you hit 65 the report comes around every year.
