    I'll add people who hang black bags of dog s**t on tree branches.

    We live on a main road but miles from any McDonalds or KFC. Yet it feels like almost every evening dog walk I see something thrown from a car window on the road from one of these places. People really are disgusting pigs.

    That makes even less sense than normal litter. You've taken the time to pick up the crap, bins are everywhere, just carry it for 10 mins if need be and put in a bin.

    The council says that the annual cost of clearing litter from the streets in the East Riding is a staggering £4.36m. It's hoped that this trial will encourage motorists to take their rubbish home and discard of it responsibly.

    Is this the joke of the week. ERYCC spending 4.36 million on street cleaning... <laugh><laugh><laugh><laugh>

    And that's where Human Beings are dumb as dog sh**. Imagine the use that money could be put to in areas that need it?
    Youth clubs, community hubs for the elderly, creating more allotments etc.

    It's very simplistic and perhaps out of touch with reality but every action has a consequence and if nobody did dumb things like throw litter on the ground or damage property needlessly resource could be spent elsewhere.

    A month or so back, a pair of blokes pulled up and emptied the contents of their van outside my house.

    There was loads of it, fast food boxes, drink cans, even an empty vodka bottle.

    Unfortunately for them, there was a camera across the road that recorded it and they were in a van with their employers name on it.

    The employer now has the video.

    theyre scum

    its not even uncommon for people to do it in their work vans, with the van plastered with phone number and employers.. sometimes its their own company
    boggles the mind

    the arrogance and entitlement is disgusting
