Sounds like something worth reporting as it is an offence in Australia at least. The police would certainly investigate such an allegation and charges could be laid if there was sufficient evidence and a conviction was possible.

After the ban on plastic shopping bags in Australia I bought a box of 3000 of them online for rubbish bin liners. I use 2 or 3 a week.

In Australia we never had plastic bags on our beaches or plastics straws on the ground. Now we have to buy paper bags at the shop and use dodgy paper straws. The developed world is trying to fix a non problem that actually exists elsewhere.

Re:I have tinnitus. I don't recommend it

I have permanent continuous tinnitus as a result of being exposed to high intensity noise and concussion association with 155 mm artillery in my work with Army. Although it never stops I can mentally block it out somehow but whenever I think about it it is always there, a loud, high pitched continuous tone. If I'm tired, sick or stressed it can be worse.

Is a car on the street a private place deserving legal protections? If so then you can do anything in a car and claim it is private but surely that's not true. A passerby or a policeman has the right to look through the glass windows of a car. Perhaps what's going on here is people aren't happy that they have been caught out doing the wrong thing and solicitors smell money. I recommend not using a phone while driving because it can distract your attention and cause an accident which might injure or kill people.
