Caught in the act, huh?

That’s what happened to this Reddit user, but she legitimately just wanted to pop in and out of a restroom and get on with her day…

But things didn’t go as planned.

Is she a jerk?

Read on and see what you think.

AITA for peeing in a restroom for disabled people?

“I (22F) was at a restaurant today, and I had to pee, so I went to the bathroom.

In my country (not the US) there’s a special toilet for disabled people inside the restroom.

Today it wasn’t occupied, so I peed and went outside, and a lady was waiting for me telling me that the toilet always has to be available for disabled people.

Sorry about that…

I apologized, and she kept on going (she was really mad) telling me that I should never do that, and calling me names and such.

So I just left (she was with a man in a wheelchair who needed the restroom, which was weird because it was the lady’s one).

I didn’t fight, but I didn’t think it was a problem because it wasn’t occupied when I got in and I just had to pee and leave.

AITA for doing that?”

If there wasn’t another restroom option, she didn’t do anything wrong.

Let’s see what folks had to say on Reddit.
