A toilet seat has won this year’s “Wacky Warning Labels” contest. The contest, now in its 12th year, is intended to highlight claims that frivolous lawsuits have distorted the U.S. civil justice system. This year’s winner is a submission from Steve Shiflett of Hampton, Georgia, who won $500. The label is attached to a portable toilet seat for outdoorsmen called “The Off-Road Commode.” The warning label reads “Not for use on moving vehicles.” Company officials added the warning about two years ago after learning that at least one consumer had modified their product and was driving around with it on the back of his vehicle. Finalists included:
· A wart removal product instruction guide that warns, “Do not use if you cannot see clearly to read the information in the information booklet.”
· A label on the underside of a cereal bowl warns, “Always use this product with adult supervision.”
· A small, 1” x 4” LCD panel warns, “Do not eat the LCD panel.”
· A bag of livestock castration rings warns, “For animal use only.”
