 PLA is the most brittle and weak of filaments (comparatively) and also has a fairly low glass transition temperature of around 60 degrees. However, don't think PLA is weak or bad to print with, it's most suited to models like figurines etc. due to the ease of printing. PLA *will* melt if left in a really hot area like a car. PLA is recommended for it's ease of printing whenever you don't need the strength or heat resistance of PETG. PLA is the most brittle and weak of filaments (comparatively) and also has a fairly low glass transition temperature of around 60 degrees.
