The Ten Most Dangerous Foods to Eat While Driving



6. Ribs and wings. They are messy and distracting and you will lick your fingers while eating them.

7. Fried chicken will also cause your hands and the steering wheel to get greasy and be slippery.

8. Jelly donuts are dangerous because no one has ever eaten one without watching the jelly ooze out of the middle.

9. Soda can spill.

10. Chocolate melts and then you are trying to get it off the steering wheel without swerving.

In New Zealand and Australia I would have to add meat pies to the list. They frequently fall apart and spill their contents which are hot onto the hands and clothes of the driver.
I see this all the time when I go down to LA to visit family. People driving on the freeway are drinking coffee, putting on makeup, talking on the call - all at once! Might want to take care of these things before driving.

I saw someone eating a bowl of cereal while driving once. I quickly moved another lane away from that person because that's just an accident waiting to happen.
I'd like to add overstuffed burritos to this list. I did this once--I was a passenger, but still, it was in a moving vehicle--and the contents didn't end up in my mouth so much as all over my lap. What a waste!
I was thinking the same thing about the chili dog. Who eats a chili dog in the car?! I guess it's the same people I see reading and painting their nails.
It feels good to write.
