Das Urinator: German Pee Bag for Long Road Trips
We've all been there before. You're on a long trip and you've got to pee really, really bad. The only problem is that there is no toilet anywhere near.
Well, now a German manufacturer has solved this age-old problem.
The RoadBag is a handy little receptacle for your urine. Simply do your business into the bag and a special chemical immediately solidifies your waste, thus preventing any spillage or mess. Seal it up and then throw it away at your next stop. Problem solved!
The RoadBag website is unfortunately all in German. For your convenience--and entertainment--I've translated it using Google Translator:
Each man knows it: Situations, in which one would give everything for a toilet. Roadbag® this problem eases once and for all.
Whether in the back-up or on the festival, with the camping or in the sport airplane - Roadbag®, the bag WC for men, facilitates you, where you also are.
Roadbag® is handily, surely, hygenically and comfortable.
The secret of Roadbag® is the superabsorber: This special granulates in the interior bag connects itself with the urine to a firm gel. Thus no drop can run out, become unpleasant smells reliably prevented.
For clean hands after urination Roadbag® a refresher pad is attached to everyone. A completely clean thing.
Oh, and be sure to listen to their classic theme song.

When are you people gonna learn?! Its ALL about men and their needs. This was not really intended for long trips, this was invented and intended for men to be able to sit in front of the telivision for hours on end to watch their favorite sporting event. Do they really think we cant see the real truth!

I can't see myself going down the road trying to piss
at 70 miles an hour. Very dangerous and I would piss all over the car seat. Not to mention all over myself. UGH

Looks to me like this blogger forgot to do his research before posting - seems like a lot of people have been aware of this or something like this for quite a long time for all different situations. Give us something new!!

Shortly after the automobile was first introduced,someone invented this first. It must have been a man because the device was called, "The Gentleman's Friend."

I never had any problems with just a tree if I was that far away from a rest stop. I was having flash backs to Austin Powers and his toy! LOL they just need to get that thing to have some suction!

Barbara, here's a link to purchase the ones we use on our boat - very woman-friendly! And now they have ones with an attached resealable bag, so REALLY no chance for spillage (but I've been using them for years without a single spill - they really do what they claim)!
