A toilet seat that attaches to a trailer hitch has gained national recognition — for a warning label that says you’d better not use it while the vehicle is moving.
The Original Off-Road Commode won this year’s Wacky Warning Labels contest, organizers announced Wednesday. The contest is intended to show how concerns about lawsuits affect product warnings.
Hunters are a chief user of the toilet seat.
Winning second-place was a wart-removal product’s instruction guide that warns: “Do not use if you cannot see clearly to read the information in the information booklet.”
Third place was a tie between a cereal bowl warning, “Always use this product with adult supervision,” and a bag of livestock castration rings cautioning, “For animal use only.”
