To ensure that your physical condition does not cause you to drive in an unsafe manner, you should:
- Keep physically fit and have regular physical examinations.
- Know the effect of any medicine on your driving ability.
- Drive within your physical limitations.
- All of the above. ✓
Answer: D. All of the above.
All of the above: keep physically fit and get regular check-ups, know how any medicine affects your driving, and drive within your physical limits.
Why this is the answer
The handbook's physical health section says anything that affects your physical or mental condition can impair your driving. It tells you to get regular vision, hearing, and general physical check-ups, to get treatment for illnesses and stay off the road when sick, and to ask your doctor or pharmacist how any prescribed medication can affect your driving. Knowing your medicine's effects and staying within what your body can handle follow from that same warning that your condition shapes how safely you drive.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A. Keep physically fit and have regular physical examinations. — Staying fit and having regular exams is only one part of the handbook's advice, so it leaves out medicine effects and driving within your limits.
- B. Know the effect of any medicine on your driving ability. — Asking about how medicine affects your driving is also just one piece of the guidance, so it does not cover fitness checks or physical limits on their own.
- C. Drive within your physical limitations. — Driving within your physical limitations is only one part of the advice, so it misses the check-ups and the medication question the handbook also raises.
Remember it
Picture three boxes to tick before you turn the key: body checked, medicine understood, limits respected.
