I have been watching magnet fishing and people love to toss stuff over bridges without a second thought on the environmental impact. Hiding evidence I can almost understand but not lawnmowers, car batteries, etc.
It seems deeper fines should be made to discourage this terrible behavior.

The bridge was closer, costs $0 (as long as you’re not caught by law enforcement), and it’s difficult to enforce no-dumping laws as garbage doesn’t ID it’s owner most of the time and you just can’t watch every dumping spot 24/7.
The people that do this are also not particularly wealthy. It’s hard to justify the cost of transport and disposal fees when you struggle to feed and house yourself.
