No Eating Or Drinking Behind The Wheel In Cyprus

Spending your holidays on the beaches of Cyprus? The Mediterranean island isn't just for sunbathing. There's plenty of activities, scenery, and culture to check out and you may need to make use of a vehicle during your trip. If you're getting behind the wheel, don't even think about eating or drinking. That's right, not even water. You don't want to get caught taking a sip of anything or digging into some Mediterranean delights, or you could be getting hit with a fine of $130. In fact, you might not even want to take your hands off the wheel. Drivers can also face penalties for unnecessarily raising their hands off the wheel, so save the road rage for back home.

This next law is a safe bet.
