I believe the research you're referring to studied the reaction times of subjects taking OTC cold remedies/decongestants. Still a pont well taken, although it's not against the law to take a Sudafed and drive.
Being a celebrity clearly places your actions in the public eye, which is why Neil Armstrong has kept such a low profile over the years. He once said that he felt an obligation to history to preserve a positive image of himself. Most celebrities don't seem to mind the attention (and various perks) until they screw up, at which point they complain about their lack of privacy.
