Yes, you can still drive your vehicle if the AC compressor is bad, as it primarily affects the air conditioning system and not the vehicle's ability to operate. However, you may experience reduced comfort due to a lack of cool air, especially in hot weather. Additionally, a failing compressor could potentially cause further damage to the AC system if not addressed, so it’s advisable to get it checked and repaired as soon as possible.
