That is a very unfortunate situation.

what's this? kneel, open your window, and let loose. if you're a woman? hold it.

What do you think travel mugs are for?

Great misery . . . guys have the advantage here, girls don't have the capability to aim so precisely, so we're pretty much stuck in our pain. Conversely, the incredible relief from finally being able to go after waiting so long is intense!

This happened to me at a three hour standstill during a solo trip I took through Nashville. The jam lasted for miles, and there was no way for a traveller to sneak off the elevated highway. I remember sweating it out for a couple hours, most uncomfortably. A man in the car directly in back of me resorted to taking his leak directly on the freeway, not even pretending to be discreet about it. Being a little more pee-shy, I eventually resorted to grabbing a sports bottle I had packed and was fortunate to get it all in there as I sat there behind the wheel. Lesson: Keep a plastic jug and large blanket in tow in your car at all times. A lady passenger will forever be in your debt if you can shield her from public viewing, while she squats on the freeway.
