Because migraines can interfere with driving, the medical examiner should not certify the driver until treatment has been shown to be safe and effective.
While many people who have migraines are able to go about their daily lives in normal fashion, others suffer debilitating migraines or have impaired vision as a result. Drivers with migraines should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, and the driver should be certified only if treatment has been shown to be safe and effective.
