  2. Yes, sedatives have no affect on driving.
  3. It is permitted to take sedation pills half an hour before driving.
  4. Only if the driver tends to be influenced by a certain medication.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Absolutely not, unless it is indicated otherwise in the medication’s prescription.

Sedatives may cause drowsiness, slow the reaction and impair concentration, so driving under their influence is prohibited. It is permitted only if the medication's prescription explicitly states otherwise.
