How about the legal drugs? So how many motorists passing you on the highway are free from ANY substance that is proven to impair driving ability? I bet the percentage of "squeaky clean" motorists is pretty small.

"It’s not just prescription medications, but over-the-counter products as well...you can be charged with a DUI if caught driving hazardously while taking prescription or OTC meds, even if your doctor wrote you that prescription."

1. Pain relievers
2. Antihistamines
3. Antidepressants
4. Antihypertensives
5. Antianxiety agents and muscle relaxants
6. Stimulants


Yes, even caffeine.
