Put the Lid Down on the Pee-Tossing, Dudes

  OMG. Don't. Do. This.

Litter crews near the Oregon-Idaho border are finding plastic bottles full of urine along a 25-miles stretch of Interstate 84.

Ewe.

“The main portion, about 100 bottles, was found on the eastbound side in a three mile stretch called ‘Three Mile Hill’ between milepost 356 and 359,” Oregon State Police Sergeant Jason Reese said in a prepared statement. “This area is prone to this problem because commercial trucks are driving at a slow speed and drivers can urinate into bottles and toss them out the window.”

In Oregon, it’s a $250 misdemeanor called “improperly disposing of human waste” – ya think? – and state police think the high price of gas causing slower driving is the problem. Drivers also may be skipping rest stops because of, er, pressure to deliver on time.

I don’t know about you, but I skip rest stops because they’re creepy. Not as creepy as peeing while driving and chucking it out the window, though.

Though the problem may not be just truck drivers, I’d venture a guess that it’s exclusively the practice of male persons.

C’mon, guys. Pee in designated areas, always put the lid down, wash your hands, hang up the towel, unload the dishwasher, feed the cat every now and again, and never tell a woman those pants make her look fat.
