motorways can be truely ugly places

12.04.10 motorways can be truely ugly places

look at what’s going on here. lamp posts, signage, mobile phone towers, big brother cameras, posts poles, columns, those dangly things that make noise when a too-high truck passes them, concrete and galvanised steel. what you don’t see in the photo is the black dust from exhaust fumes, millions, yes i am sure, millions of cigarette butts and piles of rubbish thrown out the windows of moving (and sometimes not moving) vehicles, like it’s someone else’s problem.

when are people going to realise that when they throw their crap onto the street, rather than into a bag, that yes sure, it will be someone else’s problem, but also a problem to themselves and their families? boggles the mind it does.

Street furniture is nearly always ugly and does nothing for the neighbourhood.
I was sat in my car, parked in car park at large city park when I watched nearby taxi driver wind down window an throw out his lunch packings out of the window. Whilst I was making my mind up at what to say to him a white van man parked behind us came over and told him what the hell was he playing at and made him get out and pick it up and go find the bin!!
