It depends on the severity of the foot fracture and the specific instructions given by your doctor. In general, it is not recommended to drive immediately after breaking your foot because of the pain, swelling, and reduced mobility that may affect your ability to operate a vehicle safely.
If you have a cast, splint, or boot on your foot, it may also make it difficult to press the pedals properly. You should follow your doctor’s instructions regarding weight-bearing restrictions, activity level, and pain management, and wait until your foot has healed before attempting to drive.
In most cases, it is safe to resume driving once you can comfortably and safely operate the pedals, have adequate control over the vehicle, and are no longer taking medications that impair your ability to drive. Your doctor can provide you with specific guidance on when it is safe for you to drive again based on the nature of your fracture and your individual recovery timeline.
