Does a Class C driver need a medical card to drive in California?
To operate ANY vehicle which requires a CDL of ANY class in ALL states (this is federal law - it doesn't vary by state), the driver must have, along with the appropriate class of CDL (A, B, C), a DOT Medical Card. However, this is assuming you're were referring to a Class C CDL - several states issue a non-CDL Class C licence.

Can you have a CDL with one eye?
Yes, it is possible to obtain a commercial driver's license (CDL) with one eye, as long as the individual can meet the vision requirements set by the Department of Transportation, which typically includes having good vision in the remaining eye and meeting specified visual acuity standards. An individual with one eye may need to undergo a vision screening and potentially obtain a vision exemption depending on the regulations in their state.

How long is a CDL valid after medical card expires in NY?
You will not have your CDL revoked, but the moment your medical card expires, you're prohibited from operating a CMV (or any commercial vehicle with a GVWR of more than 10,000 lbs., for that matter) until you get a new medical card. Additionally, you won't be able to renew your CDL without a valid and current medical card.
