The favorite beverages of the litterers appear to be Busch Lite and Mtn. Dew. The deposit law does not cover bottled water, iced tea, and juice containers and those thrown out the windows stay on the highway until there is an organized litter pickup which may take years.
Don't know how a previous poster determined that too many of the litterers are narcissistic drug abusing youngsters with dirty habits.
