Fast food on the move with in-car microwave

Electronics outlet Maplin has launched an in-car microwave which can be powered using a car's cigarette lighter.

The British retailer claims that the 12V in-car microwave is compact and portable and can deliver 175W of cooking power from a standard cigarette lighter for fast cooking speeds.

With the in-car microwave people can heat a slice of pizza in just four minutes and get a cup of coffee piping hot in six.

Maplin advises starting vehicles before using the in-car cooker to prevent the car battery from becoming discharged by the touchs-screen operated gadget.

In related news, the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) has increased the maximum sentence for people causing death by dangerous driving to five years.

The MoJ includes eating and drinking in its list of avoidable distractions a court must take into account in death by dangerous driving cases.

Road safety minister Jim Fitzpatrick said: "The introduction of these new offences today is the latest step to tackle bad driving and further improve safety on our roads."
