Trade In Your Steering Wheel

…for a toilet seat:

As we enter our collective lunch breaks, we thought this number might make you think again before eating and driving: There are nearly nine times as many potentially harmful bugs on your steering wheel as there are on an average toilet seat.

This shouldn’t really be surprising. Toilet seats get cleaned occasionally.

But replacing my steering wheel with a toilet seat probably wouldn’t work out all that well. The rim of the seat is too big to get my fingers comfortably around.

Anyway, if it’s not news you can use, it’s at least news.

  1. I never eat in the car, and only drink water on commutes. My ride is pimp and pure – no funk in the trunk.

  2. Man I hate it when I’m making a turn and reach that empty spot…hand just goes through the air.

    BTW do you drive with the lid up or down?

  3. Then again, the way gas prices are going, I may just find myself sitting in a cardboard box in the driveway, toilet seat in hand going vroom, vroow.

  4. Your stomach could probably handle most things on your steering wheel.

    The important question is why focus on eating when after you touch a steering wheel you do a number of other things like run your fingers through your hair or things that have a greater chance of making you sick like rubbing your eyes or touching your nose?

    Most of us wash our hands after using the toilet how many people wash their hands every time they exit a vehicle?
