Woman drivers; do not feed your baby at the wheel
Woman car insurance buyers beware; although breast feeding your child is a wonderful thing, you probably shouldn't attempt it while you're driving.
According to media reports, a woman driver in the US has been charged with endangering life after being reported for breast feeding a one-year-old child at the wheel of her car whilst talking on her mobile phone.
The Ohio woman was reported by another motorist who spotted her dangerous driving behaviour whilst she was transporting her other children to school.
He made a phone call to local police and the woman was tracked via a license plate check.
According to police, if convicted, the woman could face a $1,800 (£1,260) fine and up to 180 days in prison.
It is also likely that the price of her woman car insurance policy would increase as a consequence of a dangerous driving conviction.
