ps If I was an American I could probably sue Rendo for some sort of defamation. Like the lady who spilt MacDonalds coffee on herself and sued because it was ....  "hot"??? But I'm not (hot or American)

 

And, according to the merits of the case, she was most definitely in the right. (First of all, she wasn't driving, she was a passenger, and the car had stopped to let her open the the lid of the coffee mug to put milk in.) McDonalds was serving the coffee at a good 12 degrees C above the normal, hot enough, in fact, to cause 2nd degree burns. People sometimes spill coffee on themselves, and people who serve coffee should be aware of the fact, and not serve coffee that is not only too hot to drink, but dangerously hot. McDonalds was serving the coffee so hot because it was, in some way, more convenient for them. They were not only aware of the burn potential, but had settled out of court in a number of cases.

 

How stupid drinking hot coffee in a car. Why not stick to cans of beer like the rest of us careful drivers. Can't burn yourself with beer.
