NEWS - Eating whilst driving will get you into trouble

SPEEDING CARS

The

The police once again make their views known regarding eating behind the wheel - in short DON'T DO IT!  - 20th March 2007

In a recent case the police have shown that they will clamp down on drivers caught eating food whilst controlling a motor vehicle. As mobile phone laws become tougher, the public seem to have taken their eye off a long standing law that one cannot consume  food whilst driving.

Eating a mars bar, swigging a drink might all be considered against the law and as one driver in Runcorn discovered you could get penalised.

This chap was found to be eating a cheese and pickle sandwich when he was spotted. He received a £60 fine and 3 penalty points on his licence. If you were to have an car accident whilst eating food the penalty would undoubtedly be more severe. For more on car accident compensation please contact us for FREE initial legal advice.
