Taxi driver Robert Goodwin, of Chatham in Kent, has been fined £200 after failing to pay an initial £80 fine, for dropping a cigarette butt in Aylesford.
Sevenoaks magistrates court ordered Goodwin to pay a £200 fine, a victim surcharge of £15 and costs of £75.
Harsh Justice
Tonbridge and Malling Council’s environmental boss Owen Baldock said: “There can be absolutely no excuse for dropping litter.
“It doesn’t matter whether it’s a cigarette end, a crisp packet, chewing gum or any other item – we will continue to take a zero tolerance approach to littering, which costs the council and the tax payer more than £1 million each year in clean up fees.”
