urinating in public
Illegal street relief
Urinating in public is relieving oneself outdoors or in a space where others might see—against a wall, behind a dumpster, in an alley.
It's typically illegal as a minor offense, though enforcement varies widely.
The act ranges from genuine emergency to drunken indifference: He got a ticket for urinating in public outside the bar.
