BDifficulty 1/5

A driver has a chronic illness. What should they do to assess its possible effect on driving?

Correct answer

Consult the doctor about its effects and those of treatment.

Discuss the illness, symptoms and treatment with the doctor and observe licence conditions and restrictions. Chronic illnesses do not all carry the same risk: it depends on their course, control and treatment effects. Do not change medication on your own or drive if symptoms or effects prevent safe driving.
