Nope! 😄

I stopped going to my beloved Dunkin for awhile because they changed the lids and the coffee always dripped out. I don't have the ballerina skills required to drink and not get any drips on me....so, hey, all of a sudden I was stuck drinking the bad coffee at work.

Fortunately the problem is somewhat better. Now that I am retired and don't need Dunkin to get through the morning of course. 😆

Who is next?

I'm not sure I get what the issue is, but I'll say, not me.

I don't eat or drink anything in my cars, except for water from small bottles. I don't want the distraction and I'm too clumsy to risk making a mess.

I can never wait to start eating my fries if I splurge on a drive through. Inevitably I lose one and have to find it when I get home. Drives me nuts but of course not enough to not do it.

My issue has nothing to do with the car, that’s just where I happened to be when I took the picture. It has to do with this type of lid, which all my tumbers seem to have. I can’t drink from them without dripping. Maybe it’s the shape of my lips?

I have a couple of Starbucks travel mugs that never dribble but at home coffee mugs always seem to have drips so that a coaster is required.

And I too snarf take-out French fries ASAP however they all seem to make it into my mouth :-))

Actually now that i think about it, many mugs drip also. I just don’t regularly drink from them.

Maybe it’s the shape of my lips?

Loose lips cause drips?

Some cyclists (not me) have hydration backpacks, the liquid is sipped by way of a tube with a valve. IDK if you can have only cold liquids in the backpack. I'm guessing astronauts have similar gadgets as they probably don't want blobs of coffee floating through their areas.

bpath, what a blast from the past! And the bench seat!!! Hilarious. I usually never make it home with any fries left. Maybe I should get an extra order. LOL

LOL lucillle the day I’m drinking coffee out of my Camelbak is the day I go to caffeine rehab! (CB is not recommended for anything other than water, and I’d not risk anything but water, even cold.)

The issue is where the lid meets the tumbler. And without the lid I don’t have a problem. I don’t generally have a drinking problem! Although now I’m curious about mugs, and tomorrow morning will experiment to see if I can figure out what shape or style causes me a problem. The important stuff in life!

Is there a silicone gasket? It might be crooked, or you didn't close it completely...?

P.S. You're not the only one, I'm sure, but I don't have that issue - because I don't use those kind of drink vessels.

No it’s the tiny gap.

Don't drink and drive ;-)

No you’re not.

Loose lips cause drips?

Indeed, likely even more messy when I’m driving while taking a sip in an open cup while the vehicle goes over a pot hole.

My solution was this cup with a cover that has a sliding door just enough to insert a straw. No more spillage.

I use a straw 99.9% of the time. My daily "drink" is a 24oz Tervis tumbler (I have three, and one handle) with a lid that takes a straw.

Everytime I look at the OP photo I try to wipe my screen.

That is one clear photo FOAS.

I’m no help otherwise.

Complicated lids on drinking vessels can possibly harbor all sorts of horribleness in its works.

FOAS - that's what your tongue is for!

^^^Yes! I’ve generally purged mu home of complicated lids. The push-button ones are the worst, I’d find myself completely disassembling and boilong the pieces regularly.

My travel mugs all have screw on lids, so no leaking at all.

It has nothing to do with the lid leaking.

How much time do you spend in a car? Hours? Would you dry up and blow away if you didn't eat or drink 'on the run'? Did you learn this behavior at home? When did you start doing this?

Growning up, the only thing I remember eating in a car was an ice cream cone -- plain, single-dip -- no mess.

Keepin hydrated is one thing. "Living" in a car is something else -- assuming you have a choice.

Oops, I misunderstood what the problem is

Someone needs to invent a drink lid that is not only non-leaky but automatically self-seals when you take a corner too hard and the container tips over or the liquid shloshes.

Signed, drivers of old cars without cupholders.

John Liu, check your local antique mall/flea market for this:

bpath, that's a blast from the past!

Here's what the cowboys used for water while travelling. They also used leather covered metal canteens.

OllieJane, I read somewhere that for strength, the seam should be at the back of the cup opposite the spout. I was glad to see that because it gave legitimacy to my preference for that anyway lol

I don't travel enough to require a beverage in the car.
