No wonder our motorways are so dirty

Yet again driving around the M25 and the car coming down the outside of me was rolling up a large red bag WHILST driving ! Crossed three lanes to the hard shoulder and loads of rubbish flew out the passenger window , with contents landing on the hard shoulder and then he drove straight back out to lane 3 !
There are some dirty b Censored s about as I had followed some foreigners in a sharan a few weeks before that was throwing rubbish and food out the rear windows for quite some distance .

Whilst I have the grumps what is it with all these drivers using the hard shoulders on the M3 when the traffics queuing ! It's becoming a daily event , and far too many people texting with their phones tucked between their legs thinking they can't be seen ! Whilst driving. Jaguar x-type sport gone
Jaguar x-type 2.2d sport one of my best cars ever sadly gone
Freelander 2 GS auto 2008 most unreliable ever ! gladly gone
Freelander 2 GS manual 2013 only time will tell !

You have a camera fitted? Report them, not to the Police, to the local council, nothing more tenacious than a petty councillor with a name to make Thumbs Up
It is disgusting and one of those crimes most people simply shrug their shoulders at unfortunately, give the council a try, the fines can be quite high, up to £2500.

It's more than that, can be classed as Fly Tipping, £50,000 or a stay at a Hostelry serving porridge. p****d off with a Digital Keyboard Warrior

I know what junction it was just before leatherhead and infact the camera shows a map with the position at time of rubbish being thrown out !

I reported the last one & it took numerous calls & was just passed from pillar to post as no one wanted to take action ! but its frustrating when people are so blatant about chucking rubbish freely out of windows
Motorway slip roads are even worse and sometimes you cant even see the grass for all the rubbish . Jaguar x-type sport gone
