Kaneko Sangyo, the manufacturer of plastic car accessories drew back the curtain today on its new portable toilet for cars. The toilet comes with a curtain large enough to conceal users and a plastic bag to collect waste.
“The commode will come in handy during major disasters such as earthquakes or when you are caught in a traffic jam,” a company official said, according to Kyodo News.
Japan is situated on the Pacific “Ring of Fire” and accounts for about 20 per cent of the world's earthquakes of magnitude 6 or greater.
Drivers stranded by tectonic movements or stuck in traffic simply assemble the cardboard toilet bowl, fit a water-absorbent sheet inside and draw round the curtain.
The "portable toilet" product is small enough to fit inside a suitcase, the company said.
But prospective customers will have to hang on until November 15, when the firm begins selling the new product online.
