Safe Driving in California: Eliminating Food Distractions

Last Updated: Jul 01, 2025

So, what’s most distracting food in the car?

Is it:

  1. A Hamburger?
  2. Coffee
  3. A Soft Drink
  4. Twizzlers

Well, all but the licorice makes the top ten, but coffee’s the number one food distraction.

These distractions cause 25% of all car crashes, over a million and a half each year.

All the top ten distracting food items are messy. You might spill, then try to clean up. If you’ve got to eat on the run, take five, then drive. And keep drinks in spill-proof containers.

So, taking a food break… Or filling out accident reports. It’s a no brainer.

We want you to keep your eyes, and your mind, on the road.
