The following story about North Dakota having a problem with truckers' waste appeared on WTOP here in the DC area today. Nasty stuff.
"What stinks? Bizarre trash collects near oil patch" (http://www.wtop.com/?nid=209&sid=2801597)
Confine people to a small cube without facilities and possibly hours until a bathroom (if at all) and this happens. Especially when 'public urination' is usually a much bigger crime than littering (human waste or not).
Sadly, it's not just in ND either, it's a major nationwide problem! :no:
While I love progress, I can't imagine what the oil industry has done up there. It seems every news story is negative about it.
Crime is up, littering is up...
The roads are taking a beating as well... Even though highways in ND are typically in very good condition. Capacity-wise, there will probably need to be improvements (US 85 comes to mind). Growing up in SD, I was always impressed on ND's expressways... US 2 is 4 lane from Grand Forks to Williston (clear across the state), and US 83 is 4 lane from Minot to Bismarck.

Yep. Makes one wonder if more rest areas along the freeways and even 2-lanes might help.
Peeing is cool.

YES, many drivers, myself included have peed in a gatorade bottle or milk jug (I need to use a large mouth gatorade bottle ;-).
Those who brag the loudest are usually the ones who shouldn't be bragging at all.
And why do you care what a bunch of mostly nerdy guys think of the size of your junk? Seems a little bit creepy to me...
I need to use a large mouth bottle too. If you've ever started to pee and accidentally created a seal, you would never make that mistake again.

Now your starting to sound like The Situation (TM)..LOL
Wanna know something worse? Some truckers drill a hole in the floorboard, slip a length of hose through it, and use it to piss/shit all over their trucks/roads.

that's not too bad. it will wash off. it's the plastic bottle, not the urine/feces, that is the main problem.

Actually, the combination of both. The plastic bottle itself, nobody has a problem with picking up. If someone pees/shits in the grass, it's not a problem since nature will take care of it. Putting them together...well, then you have a bottle that must be disposed of but nobody wants to touch because it's a biohazard.
I suppose it's true then that pooing is cruel. In some cases.
That's disgusting! X-(
Some guy is in trouble for getting drunk & peeing on the Alamo. http://www.woai.com/news/local/story/Man-arrested-for-allegedly-urinating-on-Alamo/hflbMif5uE6Apz0kMj5R2g.cspx
Of course, apparently Ozzy did it too. http://www.virginmedia.com/music/features/rock-excess.php
