Abstract
Bib specifically adapted to be worn while an operator is controlling a vehicle. The device defines particular application while a user is eating and/or drinking while operating a vehicle. In its broadest context, the device includes a sheet of material having a first and a second end and an intermediate extent therebetween, wherein the intermediate extent is of a greater width than the first and second ends. Furthermore, a first steering column ring is adapted to be secured to the first end of the sheet while a neck ring is adapted to be secured adjacent the second end of the sheet. Thus, in operation, the user affixes the neck ring about the neck and the steering column ring about the steering column of a vehicle and thus employs the sheet as a bib.
