This whole pee-bottle phenomenon is pretty new to me - in fact, I really never even gave it any thought until I started reading it on this forum - and receiving a lot of flak for my views on it - of which I stand. Perhaps you've given a good reason why you have to do it, most have not. I've done OTR/Regional/Local - never used a pee bottle, the thought, frankly, never entered my mind. Find a rest area, a store with a public bathroom, I just held it in until I could find a place to go. Out in the middle of nowhere, I had no qualms in pulling over and going out of site to relieve myself. Everywhere else I always found a bathroom, porta-john, whatever.

In 2005 I was racing for Mongoose/Hyundai Driving the Santa Fe to all the races.
I was paired up with a racer out of Houston who was so mental on the road.
He refused to stop to pee, couldn't get off an exit unless our destination was on the same side of the road as the ramp to merge back onto the highway and stopping to eat was a no-no.
Did I mention he wouldn't drive?

Well this guy couldn't hold it between stops and carried a apple juice bottle with him.
He would fill this bottle between fuel stops. Carry it into the bathroom under his arm and pour it down the toilet rinse and repeat.
We even had to stop at a rest area somewhere on 10 in NM because he had a full bottle and still couldn't make the next stop.
This guy was a pissing machine!
I have no trouble going 400 miles without stopping to urinate.

Id just laugh when he ask me when I was gonna get a pee pee bottle.

What a no brainer! If you don't own the property don't trash it. I can only imagine how the CLOWNS that throw urine & feeces bombs out in the open would act if someone threw one into their tractors or trucks. However, just as bad are the ones who show just little enough decency not to hop out of their vehicle and go in public but then toss the contents of their cup, bottle, or bag from the door or the window. A lot of drivers like to shut off the engine and open their windows when weather permits. Now with higher fuel prices its a neccessity for some. So if u weren't raised in a pasture ['cause I'm sure they'd a thrown your skanky butts out of the barn] don't use the bathroom anywhere someone, especially with the windows down, might sleep. And if your one of those twisted individuals who think ya have the right to go as much as anyone does to be upset, try this. Have your spouse, children, family pet, or signifigant other to relieve themselves beside the place were your gonna sleep when you get home. See how that works for you!
If your not gonna find a facility or desolate locale [you know,the woods, the field, or up/down the embankment] use the bottle, cup, or bag. Butt show the same insight by desposing of them in a proper facility. Otherwise "U just ain't right" and U ain't just right either.

i agree with you, guy's are just lazy in my opinion.a bottle is a last resort an mean last resort!!!!!

What would your "opinion" be of a woman squatting betwixt the drive wheels of a Big truck, parked in a full truck stop parking lot --
in full view, although, it was at night?

Or a woman perched on the frame rails with her bottox facing the middle?
Looked like a water-dropping helicopter makin' a low pass and delivering it's load.

Guess what MY "opinion" of that is.

a woman squating to pee is not something i want to picture(indecent xxxposeure).but your point is taken.if i can find a bathroom 99% percent of the time,then so can other drivers.if you have to then pour it out i medditately,that would take care of piss bottle debate

It sure would, wouldn't it?
I like to believe that 99% of the time that IS what most drivers do.
Male AND female.

On a humorous note,
I once saw a Big truck with a
RESTROOM -----> sign
on the back of the sleeper.
When I followed the arrow, it led to a
flush handle mounted to the frame.

I laughed so hard
I pee'd my pants.
THAT'S when I needed a jug.

I have never done it, but even if I wanted too, I couldn't find one with an opening Big Enough to fit in.

I don't see what the big deal is....here in the south, it gives our wards of the state something to do....pick up piss bottles. We have to punish them somehow....what is better than picking up someone's "business." Not really, I think it is gross, and I have seen it enough times myself, it is totally ignorant to throw pea bottles out of the truck. When I drove package over Christmas for UPS, I would get pissed to get in a truck in the mornings and find the previous day's cups from another driver left in a cupholder.

Now that right thar is TOTALLY gross!
YucK!
