[showerthoughtsofficial]: When medication says “do not operate heavy machinery” they’re probably mainly referring to cars, but my mind always goes to forklift.
[sauntervaguelydownward]: It has honestly never occured to me that this warning was about cars and not construction equipment
I really like that you put the transcript right into the post text so the helpful human doesn’t have to do it.
reddit never let you do that, thankfully this does.
In my language that section of the leaflet always reads “Driving and working with heavy machinery”. So forklifts and industrial machinery do indeed fit.
I mean it is definitely both, but cars are the heavy machinery most likely to be operated by the average person on a regular basis
Wouldn’t they specify cars? I think some medication does say “do not drive”
I never think of cars as equipment
Its poor language probably on purpose.
