Scumbags.
I was astounded to see our local McDonald’s has a sign on the exit saying something to effect of “We don’t mind picking up your litter but would prefer you didn’t drop it”. That surely just a green light to throw all their crap everywhere. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS |

I see it all too often sadly. McDonald's bags and wrappers lobbed out the window a few miles from the restaurant, I honestly cannot fathom the mentality of it! And don't get me started on the amount of
 left on the beach at the end of a nice summer day. |

If all drive through establishments wrote the customer’s registration number on the packaging that would reduce littering you would like to think? 2015 HT XS 90

Judging by 'modern' standards shown during lockdown and such then at a guess they won't give 2x hoots.......

Consantly see it on the nice country road over the hill, fast food usually, nearest outlets are 16 miles away, so i guess thats far enough to buy in town and ditch the rubbish out the window a few mins from home as really the single track road doesn't lead anywhere of note.
Why not ust drop it in the bin at home ? Wan@%*s Still I guess that the fact we get regular fly tipping on that road despite Moray council not charging to use the local refuse centre Littering shouldn't surprise me 3 Landrovers |

Think yourself lucky they dumped their rubbish next to your truck and not on it...

Makes my blood boil and the "festival attitude" of just walking off and leaving your rubbish where you dropped it now appears normal practice at any public gathering! These are likely the same people shouting about global warming and political correctness.

unfortunately in Birmingham it now appears some people think it is OK to drive along in their car and empty the rubbish onto the road, however there are loads of womble groups being set up to collect others peoples rubbish.
some people just dont care and unfortunately with no real penalties nothing is going to change likewise why do some dog owners pick up their dogs and then hang the bag off trees etc (defies understanding) DEFENDER 90 TDCI XS,
I hope everyone is well and your land rovers make you happy |

The outlet could simply print the receipt number on the packaging. As most payments are by card it wouldn't be rocket science to track the culprit. That's if the Government and local authorities really want to address the problem. Peter

I don’t get this either as a dog owner myself. They’ve already done the worst part, which is bagging it up, it’s no hardship then to dispose of it properly. Plus carrying the bag ensures anyone you might meet adheres to social distancing rules. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS |
