Time to up the fines

EDITOR, The Tribune.

I had the following observations during my recent holidays in the SE USA.

No Littering signs on the Florida Highways: Littering Fine $100. Litter everywhere.

No Littering signs on the Georgia Highways: Littering punishable by up to $1,000.00. Some litter.

No Littering signs on the South Carolina Highways: Littering punishable by $1,000.00 fine and possible jail time. Virtually NO litter.

Judging by the insane amount of litter throughout all of The Bahamas, perhaps it is time to review our anti-littering laws and fines.
