Slower drivers ironically may be whizzing along highway

Working on a roadside litter crew doesn't sound like a very enjoyable way to spend your time, but sounds like it's really unpleasant along a certain stretch of Oregon highway:
Police say there's been an alarming rise in urine-filled plastic containers found along a three-mile stretch of Interstate 84 in eastern Oregon.

A litter crew for the Oregon Department of Transportation picked up an estimated 200-300 urine filled plastic bottles, along the highway, about half of which were found in a short stretch dubbed "Three Mile Hill."
The cops attribute the increase in pee-filled bottles to higher gas prices causing people to drive slower and avoid stopping at rest stops. Personally, I believe it has to do with an increase in the number of crude assholes driving through Oregon.
