Yep, that's what I did the first year. I was a bit worried at first, as State Troopers kept cruising down the median, but I realized they had much bigger problems than me and my meat puppet by the fenceline. Heh-heh.

Yep the side of the road. It's kinda funny watching the whole scene though because as soon as one person went it was like a mass exodus to the wood line. I guess nobody wanted to be that first gut that had to go home and tell his friends that he couldn't go to the festival because his bladder was too small and he got caught with his pants down. One other thing that happened last year on 55 regading this is that at I actually got stuck in trafiic right next to house whose inhabitants had decided to sell bathroom time for people who just couldnt hold it. I'm not sure how welll they made out because evryone I saw just went on the other side of the road.

Yeah, we saw other people getting out of their cars so we decided to do the same. I ended up going a little further down in the roadside ditch to try and not be seen so much and I ended up getting my legs all scratched up in some thorny bush. Not too great but my bladder thanked me anyway.

Coleman makes a portable potty that uses plastic bags to catch the waste. It has a "seat" and folds flat. A great investment for the road trip. Add kitty litter and you are ready to go. ;D
I'm sure others have given you suggestions, but in case they missed this one I thought I would pass it along.
In the camping section at WalMart they have what is called "TravelJohn Disposable Urinal", 6 to a box for $6.99.
It's a bag with a chemical that turns your urine into a solid gel. You can keep it in a trash bag if necessary until a more suitable disposal.
The bag has an oval plastic opening suitable for male or female usage. I've tested one and they work great! Trust me, having a solid to put in a trash bag is simple compared to contending with that much liquid...
Hope this helps. You probably could use one in a vehicle without exposing the "northwest passage to the universe", lol
Hell ya!!! I've even went so far as to light a grill on the side of the road. When i was leaving Big Cypress (13hrs. in and out i might add) we were starving and I said the hell w/ it! Lit my grill right there and just picked it up and moved it when the traffic moved a bit. Aren't bottle necks great????

Last year the traffic for us was hurry up and wait. We'd sit still for 45min and then the line would move and we'd travel for several miles before the next standstill. So make your trip to the fenceline quickly so as to not get left behind! I heard that one guy last year thought the line would only move a hundred yards or so, so he didn't worry when the traffic took off while he was peeing. Ended up having to walk the rest of the way in because he kept thinking he'd run into his friends as he walked and then never did. Skipped sunscreen for the drive (who'da thought he'd need it?) and ended up being fried all weekend.

Yea, i never hit bad enough traffic that this happened, but i usually do just piss on the side of the highway if i dont feel like waiting for a gas station. Can you get arrested for this, i have a feeling you could.

I am going to pee in my Depends. I love diapers for adults. What a cool idea.
That seems like a little much. The idea is actually quite strange. I can't imagine sitting in the car in a pool of my own piss. I would rather just piss in a gallon jug or something... It wouldn't be the first time, I wouldn't have to go anywhere, and I wouldn't have to sit in a little puddle of piss.

Haha that brings back great memories. 14 hours in that traffic but we had an RV, so it wasn't awful. I was making grilled cheese on our stove, in the middle of the night for all the people in the cars around us

This thread really makes one appreciate how far they've come with traffic control. Nothing like pissin in some poor Manchester resident's yard at 2 am because you've been in line since the sun went down. Ahh memories.
