A new poll has revealed that almost one fifth of women admit they have put on make up whilst driving. This puts themselves and other road users at risk. Women’s car insurance specialist, Diamond, quizzed more than 4,000 women on their driving habits and discovered surprisingly high numbers of them take unnecessary risks by applying their make up behind the wheel.

The survey found that women aged between 17 and 21 are the most likely to

apply make up and drive and unsurprisingly, are also the most likely to have crashed their car as a result of it.

Have any of you done this?  Do you do anything else while driving (such as texting, reading, talking on the phone, etc.)?
