If you are allergic to bees and get stung while driving, what should you do?

When faced with a bee sting while driving, the best course of action is to signal, pull over, and stop. This choice prioritizes the safety of both the driver and others on the road. In situations where an allergic reaction may occur, such as after being stung by a bee, it is essential to handle the situation carefully.

Pulling over allows the driver to safely stop the vehicle, minimizing the risk of an accident caused by potential distraction or loss of control due to sudden medical symptoms, including dizziness or difficulty breathing. Once safely stopped, the driver can assess their condition, manage their allergic reaction (if needed, such as using an EpiPen), and call for medical assistance, ensuring they receive the care they may require.

This approach emphasizes the importance of maintaining safety on the road and ensuring that the driver is in a stable condition before making any further decisions regarding transportation to a medical facility.
