.......Most Dangerous Foods to Eat...While Driving.......
Did you know that there are certain foods that are particularly dangerous to eat while you are on the road? Although eating in general is a distraction that puts you at a greater risk of getting involved in an accident, the following foods are particularly problematic for drivers:
Coffee \u2013 coffee is hot and easily spilled, which is a recipe for disaster
Soup \u2013 just like coffee, it is easy to accidentally spill coffee and to burn yourself while driving, which can cause a very dangerous reaction
Chocolate \u2013 it may be sweet and tasty, but chocolate has a tendency to melt and leave a mess behind on your fingers, which can be difficult to clean off while you are trying to drive
Chili \u2013 it is difficult to eat chili without making a mess even when you are sitting at a table \u2013 the risk for spillage and distraction is high when eating this meal while on the road
Hamburgers \u2013 a favorite fast-food treat, hamburgers are greasy and filled with condiments that easily squeeze out and make a mess on your clothes and steering wheel
Tacos \u2013 tacos fall apart easily and can leave quite the mess in your vehicle and on your shirt, causing you to become distracted as you attempt to clean up after yourself
Fried chicken \u2013 leaves grease on your hands, which means you will need to continually remove them from the steering wheel to wipe them off \u2013 but, you will still leave a greasy mess on your steering wheel anyway
Barbecued food \u2013 like fried chicken, barbecued foods have the tendency to leave your fingers a sticky mess, making it difficult for you to remain focused on the road
Filled donuts \u2013 bite into one of these and the filling might squeeze out the other end, leaving your clothing and steering wheel a gooey mess
Soft drinks \u2013 they aren\u2019t hot, but soft drinks are also prone to spilling and the carbonation can result in uncomfortable fizzing in the nose
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, eating is one of the most distracting things you can do while driving.

The Ice Dam Cometh?
BRIANNE TUCKER JANUARY 4, 2013 11:51 AM FEATURED ARTICLES, HOME SWEET HOME, SAFETY AT HOME, SEASONAL
I have a weird fascination with icicles. During the winter, I like to travel around certain neighborhoods and scope out the size of icicles hanging off of houses.
