I wrote last time about how Migraines and driving, as well as some Migraine medications and driving, don't mix (Migraines & Driving Don't Mix). To generalize, in most cases so far, driving while impaired by the effects of Migraine medications has been considered DUI, and liability has been imposed; but driving while impaired by the effects of the Migraine itself has not led to liability. Given the logical underpinnings of these cases, however, and the state of the law, I would not be surprised at some point to see liability imposed if someone who knowingly drives with a Migraine (which impairs them), causes a serious accident.

As Migraineurs, I hope that we will be responsible, and recognize that a Migraine impacts us in ways that we often don't recognize. Studies have shown that...
