Eating and driving in NSW isn’t expressly illegal, but it’s a fine line between a snack and a distraction worthy of a hefty ticket. The law targets careless driving, so if munching on your Vegemite sandwich makes you veer into the wrong lane or miss a stop sign, expect a citation for distracted driving. In short, your pie-eating skills better not compromise your control of the vehicle.
Best advice? Park up to enjoy your snack and keep your hands on the wheel and eyes on the road when driving. NSW Police don’t have time for drivers who think their lunch break includes the steering wheel.
