POLL: Should Evergreen Park Officials Outlaw Eating While Driving?

Drivers are continuously faced with several distractions while behind the wheel, and cities are hoping that new legislation will help eliminate the distractions and lower the number of accidents.

Following the recent ban on text messaging while driving, the Chicago City Council passed a ban on texting while biking last week, and a western suburb of Chicago is considering taking it further. 

The Huffington Post reports that Oak Park officials say they will consider adding an explicit ban on eating while driving when they revisit a local distracted driver ordinance related to texting behind the wheel. The report said that "a recent study into distracted driving by Texas A&M University's Texas Transportation Institute found that driving while multitasking can be even more hazardous than previous estimations."

But if eating's first, could other activities soon be restricted? This could mean that you'd have to wait to put on that eye shadow, ladies, or no more trimming those nose hairs while at the stop light, gentlemen. This could open up the can of worms on anything that could potentially take your eyes off of the road. 

What do you think about it, Evergreen Parkers? Should officials outlaw eating while driving? If so, what foods would be acceptable to eat behind the wheel?
