Traffic Jam Portapotty

A commode cone.

I was reading the annos on "Time Well Spent for Traffic Jam Victims" and with all the talk of road cones selling donuts and coffee to people trapped in their cars, I thought of the poor commuter who just has to go.

So these would be about the same idea, quite a bit larger to make room for the facilities, but still small enough to squeeze in between cars. To use it one would just pull their keys out of the ignition, jump out the window, and onto the john's deck. Knowing the DMV, this would probably be a pay toilet.

       The only trouble with such a thing is that as soon as some jackass decided to take a dump, that's when traffic would start moving again, and every car behind the jackass's car would be held up. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that this would only exacerbate traffic jams. The easiest solution is to simply do what truckers do and keep a large plastic bottle in the car. If you're female, a funnel might help.
