Medical and Insurance?

If you have a current medical but are taking a disqualifying drug, then you
are technically grounded?

I believe so.

If you are not aware that the drug is disqualifying, are you then safe?

I doubt it, as it is your responsibility to find out.

If you continue to fly and the FAA somehow has a reason to check into your
medical, can they get access to your medical records?

How should I know....I'm not a doctor or a lawyer...just kidding, I
really don't know and am a little shaky about my first 2 answers
anyway.

If involved in an accident will your insurance refuse to cover you because
of the disqualifying drug? Even if it had nothing to do with the accident?

Most insurance companies will use any whiff of an excuse to not pay a
claim.

Well, that's my 2 cents for whatever it's worth......can't get much
lower than 2 cents.
