When I was in high school a friend of mine had stopped at 7-11 at lunch to get a slurpee. On his way back someone ran a red light in front of him and he didn't see it until it was too late. He threw the slurpee in the back seat just before the impact, and when they hit, the slurpee flew forward, hit and broke the windshield. He was damn lucky it didnt hit him in the back of the head, or he might not have walked away from the crash like he did.
I had a bottle of sunscreen get caught under the pedal once while making a panic stop. Other than having a mess to clean up it didn't cause any problems though. I do try to throw all my crap on the passenger floor now.
