Urinary urgency rather than incontinence may be present at early stages. Also, the patient's gait disorder may impede him from getting to the bathroom. In later stages, urinary incontinence is accompanied by a lack of concern, reflecting its probable origin in frontal lobe impairment. From UpTodate
