I am taking a road trip by myself, and I am not sure if I should take a piss bottle or just pull over.?

Question

How many of you guys, GUY ONLY have taken a long trip and taken a seperate container just as a piss bottle? Should I just pull over? I am just worried that there may be some places that I just don't want to get out and do my business. (Everybody watching, middle of no-where and not in a good place to get out of the car, or just way too cold. By the way I am DRIVING in a truck from Florida to Washington (state).

Answer 1

Make sure its a big bottle with a wide opening so you can easily slide in to do your business and not cause any leakage. Try a large lemonade bottle, that way you can easily carry it with you in case you wanna empty it. And no one will stare because they will think its lemonade. I would recommend Gatorade, just don't pee while driving or you might hit someone. Good luck with your trip.
And yes, I have used bottles before, its a hasstle sometimes to go to a public restroom especially at the gas stations, plus they stink cause people pee on the floor or donot flush. I think its much cleaner going in a bottle.

Answer 2

I'm not a guy, but I've taken lots of road trips with boyfriends in the past or with my husband now, and none of them ever took along a piss bottle, and when my husband has to go somewhere alone he doesn't take a piss bottle. There should be plenty of places to pull over, just make sure they aren't desolate, dark places, even though you're a guy you should still watch out for crazies that might lurk around at lonely rest-stops. Besides, if you take a bottle, it will stink, it will fill up fast, and you'll have to find places to empty it.

Maybe this is a good time to get over some of those inhibitions you have. We don't have thugs and rapists and other evil people lurking behind every truck stop or greasy spoon, you have been watching too much TV or movies. Most americans are decent people, not out to get you.
If you are embarrassed about urinating in public restrooms, use a stall. But many reststops and stores usually now have privacy shields between the urinals. This could also be a time to work on that issue--force yourself to get in the lineup and pee. Close your eyes, and focus on the job.

You need to pull in and pee at a restroom, since you will likely be on major interstates, it is a lot harder to find a side road to pull off and pee. I traveled across Kansas, Nebraska, Wyoming and Idaho, then back down down south, 4200 miles in two weeks this summer, and we never had any problem locating restrooms. I have an overactive bladder problem, and even with that I had no problem. Plus in the midwest, the trees are farther apart.
You also need to get out just to stretch your legs and let your circulation get restored, you risk getting thrombosis in your legs (blood clots) that can be harmful.

Answer 4

Just Pull Over. Piss Bottle Will Spill

Answer 5

Stay in a motel at night. That way you can have 2 good pees in the bathroom. That leaves about 16 hours to pee in the car. Train yourself to go every 6 hours. Pissing 4 times a day is enough for any healthy man. You will only have to pee twice before stopping for the night.

I take it that you have stage fright and can't go at MacDonalds, at any rest stop, or behind the door of your truck.. Take a large container such as a coffee can. Good peeing. Relieve that bladder only when bursting. SStrretch it.

Answer 6

So I know I'm not a guy or anything but I do a lot of road trips in the summer. Sometimes its not safe for a young girl in her 20`s to stop all alone at a truck stop, I've actually trained myself to pee in a 1 liter pepsi bottle. WITHOUT any leakage! =) nothing wrong with it

Answer 8

Install a plastic hose , 1,5 inch diameter, that goes thru the floor and drains it away right away

if you use bottles, youll just be thinking next, were to dare to empty it.

Answer 9

There aren't any absolute needs. there are diverse issues that are extremely, extremely valuable to have, although -- MAPS, trash bag, swim healthful, cellular telephone and AAA books so that you'll call ahead to get a room formerly it receives overdue and their all bought out, CDs, crossword puzzle in case you 2 favor to do them mutually. the biggest ingredient is an adaptable, savour-what-comes, attitude.

Answer 10

I would suggest stopping to use the restroom because you will get tired and need to stretch your legs. If it becomes too frequent, then buy a piss cup.
