New program (trash troopers) in Tampa Florida, allows citizens to jot down a license plate/tag off of a vehicle which they have seen litter. Throw a soda can out the window, cigarette butts, etc. The county would send the registered owner a letter advising them they were spotted and reported for littering, while including a complimentary trash bag or pocket ashtray. What's your take? |

sounds like a version of the nazi youth group idea
there was nothing stopping people from doing this b4 but now they are promoting it interesting very interesting i guess only time will tell if it works wonder if they are numbering the bags and recording who they sent them to so when they find them on the side of the road they will know who to go after insert head scratching emoticon here hey fran |

I learned it in Girl Scouts, pack out more trash than you pack in.
We need to teach kids to respect the earth & each other, & then no one would need to be tattled on. |

All kids know that they can call & report thier parents & teachers with no consequences for lying. Once accused your reputation is ruined forever. |

I never understood the need or desire to throw something out of a moving vehicle in the first place. I have done it with apple cores. I try to throw them really hard so they are not to close to the road. Don't want a critter getting killed for a treat. |

They implemented this in Plano, TX. If THREE people have turned you in over a year, THEN there's supposed to be a fine. But, what a hassle!! And what are the odds, really!! And I just don't keep pen & paper that handy, then it's a chore to find the address and mail it to the city....
I dunno!! Might as well pick the crap up myself if possible!! |

i think its a good way for vindictive peeps to accuse you of littering and whatever happened to being able to face your accuser? Just put the free loading jailbirds out there and let them pick up the trash.
