I'm sure there are good legal arguments here that supersede all commonsense...but she nonetheless spilled the stuff on herself

Common sense would dictate that people spilling thing, especially in a vehicle, is an event reasonably likely to occur.

Common sense would further dictate that a near boiling temperature liquid would be very likely to cause significant burns if spilled.

Common sense would even further dictate that it would be prudent to take reasonable care to not aggravate the outcome of an event reasonably likely to occur.

The case was not a result of arcane legal doctrines that "supersede common sense."
