Basically under long term narcotic use patients are generally advised to refrain from driving or operating machinery until they know how it will affect them. Also keep in mind that those using these drugs will build up a certain tolerance which will make them able to perform usual tasks as they adjust to the medicine. The idea is to give life back to them, not to further cripple them. Basically, you have to determine whether you are under the influence or not. Unfortunately, you need to take in account that if there is an accident and the drug use comes to light you will almost certainly be put at fault just for using the drug. The same falls into play with people who are driving with casts, or boots.. anything that could technically affect their ability to drive properly.
