Commuters driving through SeaTac had to avoid what the Washington State Department of Transportation called a “runaway Porta Potty” Thursday morning.

A portable toilet was seen on its side blocking the two center lanes of SB I-5 near South 200th Street around 8:50 a.m., according to WSDOT.

Luckily, the mess was cleaned up quickly. The toilet was moved to the shoulder just before 9 a.m.
