Overview

• The unnamed Falmouth motorist who discarded her £50 parking ticket paid a reduced £150 littering fine and received a second parking citation.
• Cornwall Council now uses body-worn cameras, public CCTV, doorbell footage to identify motorists discarding tickets and other roadside waste.
• Two additional individuals caught on camera for dropping litter faced £250 fixed penalty notices and settled early at £150.
• Councillor Thalia Marrington has urged residents to submit home security recordings to bolster enforcement efforts.
• Waste campaigners and J Dickinson & Sons have called for licence penalty points and higher fines to deter driver littering nationwide.
