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.
Yep. When they're acting really weird I try to glance at the driver as I pass them. Often see them looking down, or even just looking at their phone on the dashboard

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.
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.
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.
Its a sensory thing IMO. You're subjecting a captive audience to smells that may linger. Not to mention potentially making a mess for someone else to clean up
Just going at a rotisserie like Cookie Monster would be rude, but regular riders learn to ignore most things, so I doubt anyone would say anything.
That mental image, Jesus christ
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.

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.
Howdy pardner, maybe Strong Towns can help? Look and see if there's a local chapter for your city and reach out to them. If not, start one! It's pretty easy, they have a lot of great resources to support you, and getting a group started is as easy as showing up to a few city councils and networking with other speakers or putting a flyer up at the library or local coffee shop!

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.
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
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
I got pulled over in the 90's for eating a bag of chips. I never left my lane, but every time I reached over into the passengers seat I would swerve a little.
It was late afternoon. I saw the cop behind me. I was doing the speed limit, but he was kind of close. I just figured he'd go around at some point. no lights, no siren. Finally, BULLHORN: PULL OVER.
K, so I pull over. Driver gets out and stays by the door hand on weapon, Passenger walks up to my drivers door, license and reg, yada yada. Have you been drinking? no. Why didn't you pull over? I just did. Why didn't you pull over back after the stoplight when we turned the lights on? What lights?
He looked back. No forward lights on.
Ohhh shit... umm he's a trainee.... Look, we pulled you over because you were swerving a bit
Ahh, sorry, I was starving points at chip bag
oh, ok, just be careful.

Yes, it does happen all the time. And the consequences are not always just a ticket.
Since when can't you eat and drive?
When it makes you swerve into another lane?
It's a skill issue.
What is the charge? Eating a meal? A succulent chinese meal?
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?
Sank his teeth into a hot chick when
She sent you on a Costco run alone. She knew the score.
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"
So glad I don't drive anymore
