Is it illegal to eat while driving?
Article 148 of the Road Traffic Act states that “safe driving and riding require concentration.”
A study from the University of Leeds found that drivers who ate had reaction times up to 44% slower than normal.
Police warn that even a momentary lapse in concentration can have serious consequences for all road users.
Eating while driving is not illegal as it is not specifically prohibited by law, but drivers should be careful as it can be just as dangerous as using a cell phone while driving.
If you become distracted while eating a snack while driving and lose control of your vehicle as a result, the police may charge you with careless driving.
This offence carries a fine of £100 and three penalty points on your licence.
In more serious cases, or those that go to court, you could be fined up to £5,000, up to nine penalty points and even given a driving ban by a court.
