I don't disagree but it doesn't absolve McD of liability if they served a product outside their standards for food temp.
But, yes, you check these things because others may be negligent and not even maliciously so but the location could have been swamped and someone had a brain fart.
I can envision circumstances that might make even normally diligent parents lose focus.
Drive thru lines can induce a bit of anxiety in people. There is an expectation that you will conduct the transaction with some urgency, like, you paid, got your order, time for you to GTFO of the way as there is a line of cars behind you. Toss in a possibly hungry cranky coupla kids and I can see this happening a parent missing the check.
