The updated road-traffic rules are expected to ban motorists from snacking or smoking or holding anything while driving
Russian authorities are set to tighten rules for motorists by prohibiting them from holding any “distracting” items in their hands while driving, online media outlet Mash reported on Monday.
Currently, motorists in Russia are only banned from texting or talking on their cell phones without hands-free implements while driving.
The looming changes, however, will effectively oblige motorists to stay focused on driving and to keep their hands free of any items that compete for their attention while at the wheel.
The change apparently means the drivers will not be able to snack on burgers or doner kebabs, drink coffee, or even smoke conventional cigarettes and assorted electronic smoking implements, the outlet noted.
