Can unprescribed medications have a negative effect on driving?
- Yes, but only in the summer.
- Yes, but only in the winter.
- Correct answer: Yes.
- No.
Why this is the answer
The correct answer in the official bank: Yes.
Even medications sold without a prescription, such as those for allergies, colds or pain, can cause drowsiness, dizziness or slower reactions. This effect has nothing to do with the season. Before driving, read the leaflet that comes with the medicine, and do not drive if it carries a warning or if you feel any effect.
