Sometimes people adhere to the warning labels on their pills but are unaware of the effect of taking those pills in combination with other pills.

I'm not trying to make excuses for Tiger, for all we know he irresponsibly didn't adhere to his doctor's instructions, but it does happen that people naively mix contraindicated prescription and non-prescription medication with adverse results, including death.

Are there really combinations of drugs, none of which cause drowsiness individually but when taken together can cause you to fall asleep at the wheel in the middle of the road?  I find that a little hard to believe given how many warnings OTC and Rx drugs come with nowadays.

The only scenario in which Tiger is blameless here is if the drugs he took don't normally cause drowsiness.  Otherwise, someone as smart as he is should  know better, and someone as wealthy as he is has a plethora of alternatives for getting places without doing the driving himself.
