Maybe it's just the photo, but it seems like it would only work in a vehicle which had a lot of floor area. Don't see it happening in my KIA Sephia, ya know? Besides, what if you're the only one in the car? (Yes, you're the driver obviously.)

You're right. The source article mentions that this is "designed for use in large estate cars and minivans." However, I don't think anything would prevent you from setting it up right outside your KIA. But then if you're usually alone in your car, why not just get a regular chemical toilet and window drapes?

I would love to have one of these on the drivers side... it would be fantastic to drive and poop at the same time... hrmmm sounds like an experiment.

Ooooh, driving and pooping....
I have driven and peed, but never pooped. THAT would definitely be one for the Poop Report!

Sure it looks primitive now...
However, if it catches on, premium car seat manufacturers like Sparco could make something purpose-built for Chris Rockwell.

Dunno why we need a complicated contraption like that. A bucket with a lid, and a blanket wrap around your waist like a sarong- covering your nether regions and the can - work fine and cost practically nada.

Occasional stops to empty the nasty contents in the woods or a convenient Dumpster, plus a bag of ground up garden lime to keep the can smelling sweet. That's the extent of complexity in my original-yet-primitive system: "The Can."

Perhaps a further refinement of the simple, but noble bucket would be treated plastic bags that would flare out to cover beyond the diameter at the top of the bucket so that you could satisfyingly let go without fear of overshooting the target or splashing the surrounding area and then seal up the dooty. Sometimes when you travel, strange food and water can produce detonations not normally experienced at home. The chemicals in the bag would neutralize the odor while the bag was waiting for disposal.
