What is the charge? Enjoying a meal? A succulent, rotisserie meal?
Did he take the Pic while driving?
Yeah, dude didn't learn his lesson with the distracted driving.
People like this deem themselves great drivers, and everyone around them can't drive. The officer should have taken his license instead.
These are the people you see doing 20 under the limit in the middle lane for 5 minutes (because they're looking at their phone) while everyone passes them, then suddenly accelerate as they realize they haven't been paying attention
This dude is definitely driving a truck, he’s got a camo hat on the dash, he’s taking photos of a receipt while driving. And he posts shit like this
This dude is doing 90 on the highway and switching lanes last minute while tailgating people, he’s definitely not cruising below the speed limit
You actually see that a lot. You're behind a car and it's slow and swirling a lot. Suddenly they speed up when they realise that they haven't checked the road in a mile or two.
I mean he looks pretty stationary to me 🤷
Its funny and all, but this guy is a fucking danger to society, and proud of it
There are so many people like this. Even here in this thread.
He even took the picture while still driving. Imagine veing crippled for the rest of your life because some fatass needs to eat a whole chicken while driving.
MFs like this are why we really need public transit. This dude is sharing the road with everyone else while he's trying to eat chicken and shitpost. He could be doing that without endangering everybody else (though he's probably deservedly catch some shit about eating a rotisserie chicken tbh) on a train.

I dunno... is he sharing? And can I get a drumstick?
As a typical American with little public transit experience, I'm right there with you. My understanding from people who do use public transit, though, is that eating a meal on the metro is a heresy deserving of immediate and excruciating death.
In general, yeah. But it really depends; if it's a mom and her kid, or if it looks like someone shuttling between multiple jobs and this is the only time they have, then I'd give em a pass.
you can eat on public transport, but what you can eat depends on the mode:
bus? only snacks basically, maybe a small sandwich
tram? mostly the same, but you can probably get away with a bag of mcdonalds if you're low-key about it
metro? i'd be quite comfortable with a bag of mcdonald's, a hand-held kebab would probably fly but not anything you need utensils to eat
and lastly on a train i'd say you can eat anything you'd eat at work, so basically just not a whole pizza
Yeah. Many don't understand that at least 15% of drivers should have their license revoked. But we can't do that when there are no viable alternatives. So instead they get to roll the dice daily until they maybe kill themselves or others.
"other people are bad drivers" isn't that hard of a sell tbh. The problem comes when you try to suggest alternatives.
Naw he needs to stay on the road. I aint trying to be smelling everyones full meals on the train home.
I say as my citys public transit, which is poorly/corruptly run, is about to lessen services even further. Sad times.
Okay. Be stays in the road, but I don't want to be in the road with him, so we still need that public transit.
Might not smell too bad by itself, but then it combines with the lingering hobo piss and someone smoking ditch weed.
I question why this person still has a valid license if they care so little about everyone else that they couldn't stay in their own lane.
They wanted to share the chicken with the others
Okay but even if we forgive that, it looks like they're taking a picture of the ticket while driving.
Passing a drumstick to your fellow commuter in the next lane out the window at highway speeds should be part of the drivers Ed curriculum.
Not to mention they clearly took the pic of the ticket while driving.
I had a co-worker get a warning once for eating leftover pizza. I've seen my mom eat the messiest sandwich and get off with a warning. It really depends on how many kids you have to drop off. No one fucks with a hungry momma bear.
There's eating food and there's eating food and swerving out of your lane
ok but I imagine a burrito is easier to handle than a hen
Nine people in the United States are killed every day in crashes that are reported to involve a distracted driver.
In the United States, over 3,100 people were killed and about 424,000 were injured in crashes involving a distracted driver in 2019.
About 1 in 5 of the people who died in crashes involving a distracted driver in 2019 were not in vehicles―they were walking, riding their bikes, or otherwise outside a vehicle.

Yes, it does happen all the time. And the consequences are not always just a ticket.
Pretty self-explanatory if you ask me; not to mention understandable. But a bottle of wine and a new rotisserie chicken for the wife couldn’t hurt.
Edit: speeling
and this is why people that eat vegetables live longer, it's far less distracting to eat a carrot or apple than a juicy roricery chicken.
This is literally me, I'll eat tacos while driving.
Hell last week I ate a full pizza while driving on the highway and at some point I mentally stopped when I realized I had eaten it all and said "this might be problematic"
I hope you hit a tree and not something that is alive
She sent you on a Costco run alone. She knew the score.
Exchange rotisserie chicken for entire homemade pecan pie, and yeah.
Since when can't you eat and drive?
What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent chinese meal?
When it makes you swerve into another lane?
It's a skill issue.
Some places will fine you even if you can demonstrably still drive perfectly well even to do complicated maneuvers, because if the law says you have to be driving in a good position to keep in perfect control of your vehicle at all times it means cops can fine you for anything.
Isn't it more about the reaction times to unplanned things?
So glad I don't drive anymore
