How to Find the Cleanest Public Restroom

When you enter a public restroom with a long row of stalls always walk way down towards the end then count back 1 or 2 and THAT will be the cleanest stall. Most people either take one of the first 2-3 or the very last one, thus those get the most use and are the dirtiest. Best of all, if you find a restroom that loops around to another set of stalls - go off into remote territory! Those stalls will be cleaner than any nearest the door.
Now, if you thought this was a more general guide, here are some other pointers from someone who has pee'd all across the country:
- all hotel/motel lobbies have public restrooms and they are cleaner than fast food restaurant ones (such as when you pull off the highway); find the ritziest hotel off the exit and waltz into the lobby.
- libraries and town offices are also a good place to stop
- no liners in the stall? use toilet paper - make a large triangle with the paper across the seat
- flush with your foot/bottom of your shoe so you don't touch the handle
- hold your paper towel in your hand as you open the door to leave so you don't touch the door
- pregnancy and/or a 2 year old holding himself will suddenly make many restrooms available to you despite their "employees only" signs
Don't cut back on the beverages and enjoy your next car trip!
