Urine Bottles on Highway May Be Due to Drivers Too Concerned With Gas Prices to Pull Off

.......Police think the price of fuel may be causing drivers to travel slower than normal to save fuel while at the same time passing rest areas or truck stops.......http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,400882,00.html

We cannot piss our way out of this mess.

It doesn't.

I'd venture to guess that I've got one of the longer commutes here (40+ miles each way).  I have in fact slowed down, and you know how much it adds to my commute?

Five.  Whole.  Minutes.

FIVE.

If you can't hold it for five friggin minutes, it's not gas prices to blame.  Go see a urologist.  Or better yet, as we were ALL told when we were kids, "WHY DIDN'T YOU GO WHEN WE WERE AT HOME!!!!"

The local paper ran a similar article about five years ago after some highway cleanup crews found bottles and bottles of urine along the interstate.  Their hypothesis is that it was truckers who didn't want to lose 15 or 20 minutes stopping to take a leak.

I read an article about the same thing maybe a year or so ago.

I remember that only because Rush Limbaugh thought it was hilarious and discussed it on his show.
