Is it illegal to eat or drink while driving?
Article 148 of the Expressway Act states that “safe driving and driving require concentration.”
Research from the University of Leeds found that drivers’ reaction times were up to 44% slower than normal when eating.
Police warned that even a short-term lapse of concentration could have serious consequences for all road users.
Eating and drinking while driving is not illegal as there are no specific laws, but drivers should be careful as the risks are almost the same as using a cell phone while driving.
If you become distracted while behind the wheel and lose control of your vehicle as a result, police may charge you with careless driving.
This offense will result in a £100 fine and three penalty points on your license.
In more serious cases, or cases fought in court, this charge can result in a fine of up to £5,000, up to nine penalty points, and even a driving ban imposed by the court.
