Perhaps, I'm in the minority, but I saw the original post of the "design flaw" in a humorous manor. Thus, a number or the responses surprised me. However, it has always been my nature to be aware of light weight things in the car with the top down.

If you raise your phone up to take a picture of that yellow police car you will get a ticket for using your phone while driving! I’m just sayin’. Sam

But .......it may very well be a cost cutting feature. Many cars with cup holders have some sort of built in flexible grip, even if it just a sliver of soft plastic. My Ford F150 has spring loaded grips that will grip the narrowest of paper coffee cups. The C8 has no built in grips of any kind. On the other hand, we might consider ourselves lucky to have cup holders at all, and on top of that we have a nice cover to give the console a more attractive appearance when they are not being used.

My stainless steel coffee mug stays in the cup holders with no problems at all.

Maybe ask them to double cup you so it's thicker.

State troopers disguised as taxis. What the hell is this world coming to? The injustice! The unfairness! What's next, troopers driving Freightliner semis with quad turbo setups to catch the more spirited drivers amongst us?
Cop cars should look like cop cars. Anything else borders on entrapment IMO 😆

It was public lands, and technically, Red Mist Rulz could poke the bear. He held the stick firmly and slowly extended it towards the bear with the confidence of a pushrod during a cold start. He knew if the bear took issue, the medical establishment had his back, regardless of the cost…

Depending on the state law he could give you a ticket for holding your phone while driving.
