[Saw] What traps could a rational person / group escape?

For example the blood trap on Saw 5 could have been cheesed a bit by using urine / vomit to help fill up the volume.  
  
What are some other creative or rational ways a person could escape a trap by jigsaw.

You're asking two different questions.

>What traps could a rational person / group escape?

Excepting the competition traps and the ones *not* set by Jigsaw, all of them can be escaped. Jigsaw's traps always have a way out. It may require some mutilation or sacrifice — in fact, it usually does — but there's always a way. Escaping from one of Jigsaw's traps is like surgery; you have to do a bit of damage before you can be free.

All of the traps in the catacombs (Saw V) could have been solved without sacrificing anyone, if they were just rational about it. They don't realize this until the very end though.

Many of the traps in the other Saw movies are lethal, or at least extremely damaging, due to the victim panicking. In the traps where the person is free to move around, the victim usually has only clothing to work with. Broken glass on the floor is used in a few traps and panicked victims walk over it suffering horrible damage to their feet, but if they pulled their pants down over their feet and shuffled through they'd have barely a scratch. In the freezer room (Saw III) Jeff could have simply used his coat to cover his face as he pushed through the pipes to get the key. The needle pit (Saw II) could have been rendered significantly easier by wrapping clothing around Amanda's arms and legs before gently lowering her into the pit. She could then search the pit with minimum risk. (There's also the issue of the key being tied to a glow stick rather than a syringe. It's never shown if the glow stick is active or not, but even if it was active just a LITTLE bit they could have just knocked out the lights in the room and looked for the faint glow of the stick to find the key.)

For the traps that require nerve and conviction, there's no creative way through it. You'll have to slice open your eyelid, or reach into that acid, or cut open the guy's stomach, to beat it.
