You should always exercise good business judgement while operating a transportation mode to ensure your safety and those of other Canadian residents!

Driving under the influence of certain substances can severely hamper your ability to operate a motor vehicle, motorcycle/scooter or e-bike. 

Many of these substances impact your judgement and reaction time, increasing the likelihood of having an accident.

Prescribed Medications

Some prescribed medications can impact your ability to drive or perform deliveries. 

If you are required to take medication, remember to read the label and ensure that the medication does not cause drowsiness or have any other effect on your driving ability. You must exercise your business judgement and avoid driving if your medication can negatively affect your ability to operate your transportation mode. 

If you are unsure as to whether a medication could have this effect, you should consult your doctor or your pharmacist for further information.
