Cup Holder And Travel Mug Relationship

These are normal sized travel mugs .I thought these could fit very well into the cup holder but it turned out to be it didn't .
Not a big deal ,thanks to sliding bar onto the passenger side I managed to secure the one mug . However, other one was too narrow for the holder to fit . It was almost feel like wobbling if you drive on uneven surface , I had to put my right hand on the mug on tight turns otherwise it could catapult or sling shot .
Seat belt help me a lot on this , I must say at least worked better than that of cup holder
I think these what is called cup holders should be called as bottle holders

I have an MBCA travel mug that fits well IF you let the handle sit in the other cup holder. The holders are not deep enough, simple as that.

I personally don't like insulated cups or mugs with handles. The handle is useless.
