Now, if she pulled over into a parking space to put the sugar in, I might feel differently but to put a cup of HOT coffee between one's legs to put sugar in while continuing to drive is just asking for trouble.

However, according to the facts of the case, she was not driving--her grandson was behind the wheel and the car was stopped when the coffee spilled.
