A driver who was distracted by a taco while driving a tractor-trailer Wednesday crashed on a Washington state highway, spilling a load of woodchips across the two-lane road. The unnamed driver was eating a taco while driving when he lost control of his truck, according to the Yakima Herald. Washington State Trooper Brian Moore said the driver drifted onto a shoulder of the Blewett Pass in the Wenatchee Mountains, and over-corrected to the point that the truck rolled, resulting in woodchips spread across the highway, which was temporarily closed. The tractor-trailer’s overturn wasn’t the first on the Washington highway this week. A new Washington state distracted driving law — mainly focused on handheld electronics — that was implemented by Gov.
