Pg 2-8 Less competition for the driver's seat
"The driver's seat belt has no provisions for child-restraint systems..."

Pg 6-44 The SnappleŽ Clause (their bold italics)
"Using a cup holder to hold hot liquids while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. If the contents spill, you could be scalded. Never use a cup holder to hold hot liquids while the vehicle is moving.

Pg 7-5 Neither wind nor rain nor dark of night...well, maybe we should turn around
"Don't use a tire chain on this [spare] tire because it won't fit properly."
