Fitness to drive · Advanced scenarios

Educational difficulty is separate from the legal penalty. These are original practice questions, not official examination items.

Lesson

Alcohol impairs judgement even before you feel drunk.

Check medicine warnings and ask a healthcare professional if it can affect driving.

If you feel sleepy, stop in a safe place and rest.

Holding and using a mobile phone while driving is prohibited.

Strong emotion and stress can reduce concentration and increase risk.
