If not the lap where exactly is one supposed to add condiments to coffee that is served into an automobile?

While I understand the argument that it would be sensible for MD to have made coffee lower temp just to CYA, it's a shame that people have to even think about CYA.
Well get used to it. Public demand for a high standard of product safety is not going to change.
