Question 4178

When you have an illness, what must you do to reduce the risk of having an accident?

  1. Increase the dose of your medications.
  2. Avoid driving during the acute phase of the illness.
  3. Stop the treatment without consulting a doctor.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Avoid driving during the acute phase of the illness.

During the acute phase, when symptoms are strongest, such as a high fever or severe pain, the sensible choice is not to drive. Follow your treatment exactly as your doctor instructed. Changing the dose or stopping treatment on your own increases the risk.
