Question 5296

Are amphetamines dangerous for driving?

  1. No, because they are tranquilizers.
  2. Yes.
  3. No, because they delay the onset of sleepiness.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes.

Yes. Amphetamines are stimulants, not tranquilizers. They cause euphoria and overconfidence and make drivers impatient and impulsive. They delay sleepiness but do not prevent it, and when the effects wear off, exhaustion and the need to sleep hit suddenly.
