Dumb warning label

Photobucket

I got this sun reflector/visor thingy from my boss the other day as a gift. Great, thanks. Why the fuck they chose that as a gift, I have no clue. I get a lot of weird stuff from my job. A few weeks ago they gave me a backpack. A few months before that, a hat. I get pens, water bottles, highlighters...I guess its just perks.

The sun visor doesn't fit very well in my car, plus I rarely leave my car out in the sunlight, so whatever. I thought I'd try it out before I threw it into the "pile of shit I never use but its brand new so I don't throw it away."

I unfolded it and happened to read the label..checkit..

"Do not drive with shade in place."

Seriously? Are people that stupid that they need that warning? The label tells me that Someone, somwhere, has probably actually tried to drive with the sunshade in place - necessitating the warning label from the sun shade manufacturer's legal department.

Haha, reminds me of the stories of people driving motorhomes, putting it on cruise control, and going to the back for a refreshment.
