Updated | By The Drive with Rob & Roz
First no electricity, now no flushing!
As South Africans, we can agree that the struggle is very real.
Not only do we have to deal with various stages of load shedding but as it turns out, if you find yourself out and about in Johannesburg, hoping to take a quick bathroom break, you might need to readjust your plans and make sure you get home as soon as possible.

According to a recent study done by QS Supplies, they revealed which cities across the globe have the best, and naturally the worst, public access to toilets.
Whether you’re a tourist visiting a foreign country or a curious local looking for the nearest loo, this info could come in handy.
While most of us don’t always feel the dire need to use a public bathroom, for expecting mothers, people with disabilities, the elderly, and the homeless, it is a necessity.

QS Supplies took it upon themselves to calculate the average number of public toilets per km² and according to their findings, the best of the best is in Paris, France where you can find 6.72 public bathrooms per km².
Sadly on the opposite end of the spectrum, Cairo, Egypt, came in last with a shocking 0.00 per km², with Johannesburg beating them barely with 0.01 per km².
You can find the full list of their findings here.
