It is always recommended that until you have been taking this type of drug for several weeks, (on a daily basis) that you DO NOT DRIVE. Benzo's have what is called a long "half life". Half life is how much of the active ingredient is in your CNS after you take the very first dose. Drug screens have detected a single dose of a benzo Valium a MONTH after it was ingested. This type of drug is not like alcohol, where it get 'out of your system an ounce per hour. Take this advice: Wait until you are at your home or hotel until you take the prescribed dose.

I wouldn't recommend it, driving requires you to be awake and alert and Valium may cause a little drowsiness

Should you eat with Valium?

You can eat prior to taking valium and be safe... but what I think you really mean is will the high be less intense if you eat before taking it. That is a logical yes, any drug will be less effective if you eat before taking it as it gets mixed in along with the food taking longer to digest and longer to absorb; lessening the dose at any given time. Eating after taking valium and getting the effect will not lessen its effect though, so if you want to eat, take the valium first, wait for it to kick in, and then eat.
