Safe & Responsible DrivingStandalone practice
A medicine can make you drowsy. What should you understand before drinking alcohol and deciding whether to drive?
Correct answer: The combination can worsen impairment; do not drive impaired
Why
Alcohol and other drugs can combine to increase impairment. Prescription and nonprescription medicines may affect alertness, vision or judgment. Check the label and ask a doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure about driving. Do not drive impaired; use another safe means of travel rather than relying on a numerical alcohol level alone.
