My rant , and you are right to complain , I salute your efforts in walking 4km to pick up these lazy so and so's rubbish , good luck ..

Hi Brian, Years ago when I drove from Kalgorlie to Norsman, both sides of the road had stubbie bottles from one place to the other.
Scouts did a 15 kilometer cleanup drive and got about 30 tons of glass
The last time I was over there it was still the same.
Cheers
