sewer smell

i am new to rv's. the family and i took our first trip where we have used the bathroom toilet.

Everything went well untill we left the site today.

once we got under way to head for home the smell comeing from the tank was like being in a outhouse.

we didnt empty the tank because everything i read says to wait till at least half full. We only had 1/4 full at the time.

Anyways after getting home i just added water right to the tank anxd went to a local rv dealer to dump the tank?

Is the smell normal when driving if it doesnt get emptied?
