Correct answer
Yes, because it can cause drowsiness.
Yes. Cold symptoms such as sneezing, watery eyes, discomfort or fatigue can distract or impair vision and attention. Some medicines used for relief can cause drowsiness and increase reaction time, rather than reduce it. Read the leaflet and ask a doctor or pharmacist about driving effects. If symptoms or treatment impair your ability, avoid driving and use a safe alternative. Not all medicines have the same effects.
