Four Loco Lawsuit

A woman injured in a car accident has filed a lawsuit against Four Loco, the makers of the controversial drink that combines alcohol and caffeine. The lawsuit against Four Loco claims that the driver of the car the woman was in had drank Four Loco before the car accident that injured the Plaintiff. The lawsuit names the driver (presumably the woman's friend), Four Loco's manufacturer, and even drags in the convenience store that sold the Four Loco. (The great, great grandson of the first man to combine rum and coke was not named.)

I am assuming the lawsuit stems from the FDA's warning last week that Four Loco and other caffeine-alcohol drink manufacturers have used caffeine as an unsafe food additive in the drinks. The FDA left the door open for further action.
