Oh my god, the stupidity. Good lord. You can hear the engine knocking and in it's death throes. You know they're married to some poor bastard. My guess is there's a reason the car has a dash cam."When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin
"A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury." -Alexander Fraser Tytler

It'll get kicked. There is this whole reasonable person standard that dictates success in law. Would a reasonable have noticed the 4 foot drop off in a light commercial area? Probably. Non-suit. Thanks for coming, Ma'am.Originally posted by TX_92_Notch View PostThat's a lawsuit waiting to happen...

Have you ever really combed through that case? McDonald's had a history of complaints, and chose to not only ignore, but keep the throttle down.Originally posted by chronical View PostMcDonald's and hot coffee...
Look up pictures of Stella Liebeck Burns. I'd also suggest watching Hot Coffee. It was a documentary that followed her life and the lawsuit. In no way is her case similar to 2 old birds driving off of a loading dock because they weren't paying attention.

I agree with all that, but putting hot liquid between your legs is not a good idea.Originally posted by Sean88gt View PostHave you ever really combed through that case? McDonald's had a history of complaints, and chose to not only ignore, but keep the throttle down.

I don't disagree, but she was also damn near 80 (they always make the best choices), it was 1992 - so cup holders weren't the norm, and she was riding shotgun in a stopped vehicle when it happened.Originally posted by Craizie View PostI agree with all that, but putting hot liquid between your legs is not a good idea.

I saw it, but your right there should be a couple of poles in yellow with a small chain or something to let morons like Lucy and Ethyl know that its not an alley or thorough-way.Originally posted by SilverbackLook all you want, she can't find anyone else who treats her as bad as I do, and I keep her self esteem so low, she wouldn't think twice about going anywhere else.
