Imagine driving along the road and seeing a family with a full dining room table, set out on the side of the road. This seems to have actually happened in the UK.  According to dailystar, drivers had to do a double take as they spotted the six people coming together for a lovely picnic in the great outdoors at a dining table that featured a lamp, candles and spacious seating arrangements. The six people spotted were tucking into their lunch on a "lay-by" (off the side of a road) in Bristol, with the bold group of picnickers unbothered by stunned passers-by.

The group were sat at the side of the road with a dining set that looked as though it had come straight from their living room. A wicker picnic basket could be spotted between two chairs at the foot of the table, right next to the out-of-place floor lamp, tablecloth and candle set.

One driver who spotted the group tucking into their unusual lunch at 2.40pm says amused drivers were honking their horns as they passed the group, who were said to have waved at bemused passers-by.

Although ribbed for their fine dining outdoor venture, the smart group of six have avoided a UK Highway Code ruling that could charge drivers up to £5,000 for eating at the wheel.

According to Rule 148 of the Highway Code, drivers must "avoid distractions when driving or riding such as... trying to read maps, starting, or adjusting any music or radio... eating and drinking". Read more on this story here.
