Mum and Dad went to Singapore a few years back and they said that place

I *personally* regard littering - from the odd fag end right the way up
to flytipped tonnes - as one of the worst crimes a person can commit.
It's lack of respect for where I have to live is indicative of a very bad
person.

I'd be more than happy to see custodial sentences for littering. And I
would suspect a lot of petty crime would disappear overnight.

I think it's called the broken windows approach ?

I am waiting for this offence to be linked to dash cam footage. Don't need
to involve the Police, just threaten their driving licence!

Doesn't work with illegal drugged driving.

True but why single out drugged driving, why not just have dangerous driving.
If yuo can drive drunk or ****ed up with drugs or even drive blind
was is that worse that driving while drinking a bottle of water or doing yuor make-up.
