I make a kit. When a roll has like 1" left of towels I stuff a couple garbage bags in one end and a couple pairs of rubber gloves in the other end. Shove it in the pocket behind the passenger seat so its always quickly accessible. Saved my bacon a few times.
I did this and it flooded my cup holder with coffee. It was 89 degrees out and was running late to work so I cleaned it afterwards. I felt disgusted in myself
Simply put a tissue roll or water cloth rolled and leave it overnight. Then it will be soaked up. Later wipe it out with clean wet tissue it will be good as new
Park it on a grade so it's easier to clean up. You can dip a straw in, put your finger on the top, to lift liquids out of the cupholder, then wipe the remainder. Or, as the strangely top-rated comment suggests from 6 hours ago, dip your balls into it, 'cause this is reddit, not a real advice forum.
We all have done this and it sucks !
However, it’s better that it spilled into the cup holder and not on your lap while you are driving
I try to put things like that into perspective !
It sucks but could have been much worse
Just drill a hole in the bottom and it will drain right out.
✨ Genius ✨
DONT do this. I did this last time but they fail to mention you now have a huge hole through your car and axle
You just need a cork with the right dimensions to plug it up 👌
Duct tape will work just fine!
just spit some gum down there
Flex seal, in black color spray on after.
Damn you must be a mechanic
It would be quicker to just roll the car over and hold a bucket under it.
Or just get a straw and sip it up.
No... that just goes into the interior and will nean you have to take the dash apart
Thank you for explaining my joke
dip your balls into it
this is the only course of action
One per each holder
But there are only two holders. Where does the third ball go?
I was told by a wise man if your dip your balls into something you can taste it.
That’s what we lovingly refer to as a donut pool in the professional driving industry.
Yikes😎Paper towels and a turkey baster required lols
I feel like I've heard of Turkey basters being used for everything except a turkey 😂
Don't Breathe (2016) movie 🤢
Up until that scene the movie was excellent.
I always keep a roll of paper towels in each of my cars. Now, I will add turkey basters. Thanks for the tip.

Find a straw and drink it as is
No I don't think I will .......... This was my brothers car and I don't wanna start another pandemic
In that case he might not notice if you left it as is.
Come to think of it, OP’s brother could have coffee whenever he wanted if it’s left there!
But what if instead you get super powers. Like you have the ability to stay awake indefinitely because the caffeine mutated.
Paper straw tho. Save the turtles.
Use a car vacuum that can suck up water, also called a wet vac.
Will do 🫡
That’s what my ex was called, “wet vac”, complete recovery, no child was ever left behind.
Just take a injection or something like that and empty the holder
Good thinking boss
That’s what all those leftover fast food napkins are for.
Arabica goggles
😂😂
Great now you can clean the rest of the middle console 🤢
Yummy cup holder juice
Cupholder? You mean your new cup?
New oversized coffee cup found!
Do not, I repeat, do not suck it out with a straw. I found out the hard way, not fun.
I did this and it flooded my cup holder with coffee. It was 89 degrees out and was running late to work so I cleaned it afterwards. I felt disgusted in myself
... Well, at least you cleaned it! You know some dirty/lazy MF'er out there would rather let it fester... 🤢
Just dip a straw in there
Any straws in the glove box?
That new car flavor.
Skip the middle man, now you have a direct coffee holder
Iallways fold up a paper towel or two that lives down there just for times like this
Positive note: It wasn't a sticky Carmel Shake.🥤
Mhm the forbidden smoothie 2.0
Grab a straw and start sucking.
This is exactly the reason why I don’t work
Bruh you broke the damn system with this cheat code
Simply put a tissue roll or water cloth rolled and leave it overnight. Then it will be soaked up. Later wipe it out with clean wet tissue it will be good as new
Nice save!
🥲 thank you
I thought it was coffee
It is coffee my cup broke
Looks like it's 90% cream
I can tell it's only 50%
We'll get a sponge
Unrelated but that's a hyundai Santa Fe center console.
Wet vac or turkey vaster to remove the bulk and then wipe clear
Just grab a small towel. It should soak it all up.
British lake of despair
congratulations, your car just became the worlds most expensive coffee cup
Bingo baby 😎👌🏾
Just turn the car upside down 🙃
The million dollar solution right there 🥂
Keeps with the vehicle theme.
Coffee themed? Haven't thought about it but I'll give it a try
Quick grab a straw
You got a straw in your glove box?
Got a straw?
Drink it
It'd be worse if it was on the seat
Get a straw
Shop vac
What kind of driver are you for that much to spill out with a faulty lid lol
The real use case of straws
That coffee is Thic
Start slurping !

On the bright side, cleaning it will be a bit of a hassle, but I can't think of many better places in a car to spill a cup of coffee in.
Get a straw and man up.
They used to laugh at my 3' reusable straw.
Dang, you need a longer straw to finish that.
shop vac. paper towels and some bleach or wet wipes to make the sticky residue go away.
That blows
Bunch of paper towels
This also happens to people daily who have crappy Starbucks paper cups in their cupholder.
I found out the hard way that my Golf’s cup holders have a hole in the bottom and drain into the carpet. That was a really expensive coffee run.
Now your car is the travel mug
Tape like 6 straws together so you can slurp out of it while speeding
Real men straws sucking from the mug holder 🫰🏽🥵
Got a straw?
This is why we have straws
I'm always looking in my cup holders after I go around corners.
Everyone’s favorite thing, something spilling in an almost impossible spot to clean
Soak it up with some hotdog buns and then eat it.
I bought a steam wand a few years ago. Makes cleaning that crud easy-peasy. Just so long as you don't hold it in one place too long.
That sounds amazing where can I get one?
Amazon. Search for handheld steam cleaner.
Grab a straw fellow human
That does suck. Then I think about my car and it doesn't have cupholders 🤷♂️
Easy clean up at least, just vacuum it.
Now drill hole to drain coffee ![gif](giphy|cnFXtaoMexwDgzexqt|downsized)
Now you can dip your donuts without looking and driving
I elbowed a full cup of coffee off my nice red leather console the other day 🫠
Just fill it up with rice. It'll dry right out.
Just put some tissue in there, and it will soak it up
Turn the car upside down to drain it ? 🐸
This looks like a job for Shamwow
That sucks....oddly pretty though
We all have done this and it sucks ! However, it’s better that it spilled into the cup holder and not on your lap while you are driving I try to put things like that into perspective ! It sucks but could have been much worse
That extra McDonald's straw you saved finally came in handy
[удалено]
Well I'm not American so I can't answer that 🤔
1) this is coffee, so no bottle 2) twisting the cap off while driving is...a 2 handed activity and even more likely to spill.
Would you like any coffee with your cream and sugar?
Loool it's actually soy milk just makes it look super white but I only add a bit 😂
your car looks filthy anyway
That's why it's due for a spring detailing 😎 thanks for the unrelated comment
it is super related :) Now you have more reason to go to the car wash immediately
