It’s convenient and time-saving, but eating yummy foods while driving can cost you your life, especially these 10 common goodies!
Just tell me, who doesn’t often take a bite of their favorite food without enjoying its irresistible deliciousness to the fullest? Well, this is actually a perfect synonym to distraction!

When you lose attention to anything other than the road (even for a moment), you’re naturally putting yourself at risk of a potential accident. And thinking “what could possibly go wrong?” is the biggest mistake any driver can make because, apparently, so many things can go terribly wrong.
The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration found that the cause of most accidents is drivers not paying attention, and thus warns that eating while driving is even more distracting than texting while driving!

#1 – Chocolate
Chocolate is one of the best and most delicious snacks that you can enjoy anywhere, including your car. Sadly, it turned out to be dangerous due to its melting nature!
In most cases, your fingers get coated with chocolate, which continues to melt against the warmth of your skin. This may sound romantic but you end up leaving ugly stains on everything you touch.
The dangerous part is when you attempt to clean the mess off the steering wheel and suddenly find yourself swerving, or worse…
According to some studies, a driver’s instinct to clean melted chocolate off the wheel often results in accidents. (Wait, don’t get me wrong but shouldn’t a driver’s instinct be to actually drive!)
#2 – Soft Drinks
Most soft drinks are easy to carry and most people don’t resist the temptation to enjoy their favorite drink while on the road because why not!
Besides the possibility that you can spill your drink effortlessly, you should also keep in mind that carbonated beverages can go fizzy while you’re sipping if you make a sudden move. I guess no need to remind you how cola fizz in the nose. It’s everything but pleasant (or safe).
