Question 72 in the bank

Can a person drive a vehicle immediately after taking medications which have effect on his fitness to drive?

  1. No, unless 4 hours pass from the time he takes the medication
  2. Yes, if these medications do not affect his level of driving
  3. Correct answer: No.
  4. Yes, when the medication has a lasting harmful effect

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: No.

Medications that affect fitness to drive can cause drowsiness, slower reactions and poor concentration and judgment, so driving under their influence is not allowed. There is no fixed waiting time such as four hours, because each drug's effect lasts a different length of time. Read the leaflet, ask a doctor or pharmacist, and do not drive while the effect remains.
