00:00:00.180 --> 00:00:01.800
- The weather's finally getting warmer,

2
00:00:01.800 --> 00:00:05.130
and for the most part that means
we're gonna need more water

3
00:00:05.130 --> 00:00:07.170
in our cars to drink.

4
00:00:07.170 --> 00:00:09.997
Because you wanna stay
hydrated and alive, don't you?

5
00:00:09.997 --> 00:00:12.870
(upbeat music)

6
00:00:12.870 --> 00:00:16.320
That means that you're
gonna need a water bottle.

7
00:00:16.320 --> 00:00:18.180
But did you know that
one of these bad boys

8
00:00:18.180 --> 00:00:21.270
can actually spell disaster for your car?

9
00:00:21.270 --> 00:00:25.080
As it turns out where
there's water, there's fire.

10
00:00:25.080 --> 00:00:27.000
At first, blaming a water bottle

11
00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:30.300
for a car fire might seem
a little bit traumatic

12
00:00:30.300 --> 00:00:32.340
but have you ever thought
about that vindictive kid

13
00:00:32.340 --> 00:00:34.350
that you went to school
with who would burn ants

14
00:00:34.350 --> 00:00:35.880
with a magnifying glass?

15
00:00:35.880 --> 00:00:38.100
Well, the same thing happens with this.

16
00:00:38.100 --> 00:00:39.960
A clear bottle filled with water

17
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:41.970
acts just like a magnifying glass

18
00:00:41.970 --> 00:00:44.280
which is gonna concentrate the sun's ray

19
00:00:44.280 --> 00:00:46.290
onto a spot in your interior.

20
00:00:46.290 --> 00:00:49.290
And if you're real unlucky,
it's gonna start a fire.

21
00:00:49.290 --> 00:00:53.010
So basically, don't leave
your clear water bottle

22
00:00:53.010 --> 00:00:56.820
in the car, 'cause it's just
going to either start a fire

23
00:00:56.820 --> 00:00:59.730
or be gross and hot when you get back in.

24
00:00:59.730 --> 00:01:01.410
Take it with you into the Target,

25
00:01:01.410 --> 00:01:03.450
sip it while you're walking around.

26
00:01:03.450 --> 00:01:04.980
You'll feel much better

27
00:01:04.980 --> 00:01:07.140
and you won't have to
make a very weird call

28
00:01:07.140 --> 00:01:08.430
to your insurance company.

29
00:01:08.430 --> 00:01:12.360
