    funny (and yes) true story..

    i drove by night, and my route back then was 95 S to Rte 9 N in CT..very quiet road, very dark, and only the stars in the sky.

    well this one night, i had to "squirt the dirt", so i pull over.

    all is as quiet as can be.

    then a car pulled up behind my trailer.

    2 CT troopers walk up to the cab, one on each side..

    i acted quickly and was "fiddling with the air lines..

    the trooper in charged asked, if everything was ok..
    '
    i said "oh yeah, just checking my lines, thought i heard some air"..

    "have a safe night trucker", and they walked away.

    i can only "assume", they knew what i was doing, squirting the dirt.....and NOT checking my air lines...lol

    If you don't want to do it in a jug, then get yourself a catheter and a collection bag. You won't have to stop driving until the bag is full and you won't be "one of those drivers" (even though everyone at some point has likely done it, they just don't want to admit to it).

    Truth is public urination is a crime in all states, but not sure of a prosecution rate.
    I mean to say if you're whizzing on the merry go round at the local middle school during recess then of course but laws such as that are ridiculous to apply to a trucker relieving themselves, especially when so many places don't provide facilities for the drivers imho.

    I take pride in each bottle filled as that is one bottle closer to being able to retire and never have to deal with anyone I don’t want to ever again. Rather than measure the days in miles driven I count the water bottles filled with Midnight’s special reserve.

    Doesn't matter that it's ridiculous. Lots of ridiculous laws. What matters is that people have been charged and put on the list. Stupid way to ruin your life.

    yes, i do believe one must register as a sex offender as well....

    yup, here it is...

    Urinating in public is illegal in every state. ... A harsher approach is to charge defendants with indecent exposure or public lewdness, which are crimes that may require convicted defendants to register as a sex offender. Many city and county criminal ordinances also prohibit public urination.

    Deer park and nestle water use the big mouth plastic jugs. I put a walmart flavor packet in a gallon and drink juice all week. Empties i toss behind me. When i gotta go i just stuff the mushroom in there and let'r rip then park that bottle in the thunder bucket so theres no chance i mix it up or somehow spill it. I dump it and rinse after each use or grab another.

    They would have to convince a jury of my peers that my urination in the great outdoors was truly a sex crime.
    Yes there are ridiculous laws but I do not fear the wrath of the urination patrol and will continue my free spirited pee where I must ways, list or no list!
