In an effort to stay hydrated this summer, many people keep a bottle of water close.
But in some cases, that can be a problem.
Dioni Amuchastegue, a battery technician on the west coast, recently made a mistake that is now educating people across the country, including right here in Kentuckiana.
"Sitting in the truck, I happened to notice some smoke out of the corner of my eye," he said. "I looked over and noticed that light was being refracted through a water bottle and starting to catch the seat on fire."
Amuchastegue said the water bottle became a magnifying glass for the sunlight.
