Dear Sir,
I’m sick of seeing so much rubbish on the roadside. Last week, I drove from Woy to Gosforth
and saw over 200 soft drink cans and 80 bottles on the roadside. The recycling and” Do the
right thing ” campaigns obviously have not worked. Maybe the police should set up “litter”
cameras as well as speed cameras to catch motorists who pollute our roads. In South
Australia, you pay a deposit of five cents on cans and bottles and this encourages people to
return them rather than dump them. New South Wales should introduce this idea
immediately.

W.Thompson
