Coffee cups contain coffee that helps one wake up in the morning
during the daily 2 hour 100+km commute to work.

Cigarettes are are an addictive substance that some people utilize
with the contents of a coffee cup.

Loose pets are a hazard that only fools would allow in a car.

My coffee cup doesn't move around on me.  A parakeet or a stressed-out
gazelle probably would be distracting, so I'm not about to try it.

Personally, I'm looking forward to posting articles like this one
while driving down the 401 (very_slowly) on my portable connected
to my celular phone (guess I'll have to buy this stuff).  :-)

(I don't have a mobile phone; that would be an expensive distrction)
