Love This Bus Driver Who Takes Both Hands Off The Wheel To Eat a Burrito While Driving And Ends Up Smashing Into a Line Of Cars

ABC - Warnings about distracted driving do not just apply to cell phones. A newly released video of a New Mexico bus crash is highlighting the dangers of eating while driving. The lawsuit claimed the bus driver was texting behind the wheel, according to local ABC Affiliate KOAT. However, new video has surfaced showing the bus driver engaging in a different kind of distracted driving. The bus driver, identified by authorities as Jeremy Perea, was eating a burrito just moments before the crash, the video reveals. “Our driver was disciplined for eating and drinking on the job, which is against our policy, and for causing the accident. And he has not been in an accident since that day,” ABQ RIDE Public Information Officer Rick De Reyes told ABC News.

Love this guy. Absolutely cannot wait to eat his burrito, cars stopped at a traffic light be dammed. But really, what are the chances those cars are stopped? You can’t fault him for chowing down on his Chipotle, that traffic light appeared out of thin air as if by magic. At the end of the day, if you love something as much as he loves burritos, you can’t let a little thing like “traffic” slow your roll. Pedal to the metal, double fisting burritos and Cokes all day. I do it all the time at my job, why can’t he do it at his? Seems like a bit of a double standard if you ask me.
