I understand another "trick" is to pee on the radiator of a car parked at a bar etc. Does not smell so good once the rad heats up. I have not had this happen to me but friends have told me they experienced this after attending a party. They were driving home on a beautiful warm night with the windows open and noted a distinct odor everytime they stopped at a traffic light. They later traced it to the front of their own car. A very nice old red Pontiac Parisienne (spelling?) - mid to late 60's with the big chrome strip down the console and right through the back seat to the speaker grill.

No it is from some "pee bomb human fluid" which spilled during the filling process. The latest trick is to throw these "pee bombs" at cars for things like 1. Just being on the road, 2. not accelerating fast enough or 3. not going 90mph when being two inch tailgated.. 4. other reasons based on joy and happiness. I know, I have been hit by two in the last six months on the interstate in PA once I was able to finally get over and they passed me on the left. One hit my windshield and for the life of me I do not know how it did not break.
