Maybe because it is obvious? How close is too close?
NOTHING is obvious to everybody.
My daughter once burned up a bike tire and warped the rim by having it mounted about 4 inches directly behind the exhaust.
Your plastic can should not be directly in the exhaust stream. If you can feel the exhaust blowing on it, it is too close.
It also should not be directly above an exhaust pipe.
But I don't really understand questions like this. Put it as far away as possible. That should be several feet and is more than enough.
