Day 280 - Reported a Litterer

After I dropped the girls off at school I was on my way home and the car in front of me tossed out their cigarette butt.  It irks me to no end to see people tossing things out their window and luckily Texas has a great program  that is a nice gentle reminder that sends the litterer a trash bag to their home, the date and reason for the report and a Don't Mess with Texas sticker.

So what can you do when you see trash blowing in the wind and eventually landing on the side of our highways? Instead of delivering your own method of justice, we suggest turning the litterer in through the Texas Department of Transportation’s Report a Litterer Program. It’s an anonymous way to gently remind litterbugs they Don’t mess with Texas.

When you see litter thrown or flying out of a vehicle, intentionally or accidentally, take down the following information—license plate number, make and color of vehicle, date and time, location, who tossed the litter, and what was tossed.  Here is the site where you can report a litterbug. 

So for today's random act of kindness I reported this vehicle this morning after they tossed their cigarette out the window.
