Anyone will discover in a fraction of a second that all they have to do to avoid the reflected stream is aim diagonally at the wall.
At $117 per square meter of this paint, complete with a suspiciously well-produced video to sell it to the public, it's hard to believe this isn't just a slick packaged scam to get the taxpayer's money into someone else's pockets.
As others have pointed out, with the insane amount of money that would go into this, they could just add public toilets here and there instead.
- bambax 12y ago> all they have to do to avoid the reflected stream is aim diagonally at the wall Or, not aim at the wall at all and urinate downwind... Why there aren't more public toilets in major towns is a mystery to me. Here in Paris there are a few, but not enough by a long shot, and for some (puritanical?) reason they close automatically at 10pm, so if you're coming out of a bar or a restaurant late at night, you're out of luck. What's the problem with public toilets????
- raldi 12y agoWow, that's the opposite of Amsterdam, where the public toilets only appear at night: http://www.citymetric.com/horizons/toilets-are-popping-city-streets-night-534 http://www.citymetric.com/horizons/toilets-are-popping-city-...

- Fezzik 12y agoThis may sound dismissive of drug addicts, but I know in Portland, OR, USA, we shut down all our public bathrooms at night because homeless/junkies use them as places to sleep, vandalize them, do drugs in them, etc... They became more of a liability than a public benefit.
- EdwardDiego 12y agoUnfortunately a case of treating the symptoms instead of the cause. Mind you, it's a bit easier to lock toilets than solve systemic inequality.
