Which PennDOT division is responsible for keeping our highways free of litter, trash and animal carcasses? Whoever they are, they’ve either retired, been fired, quit, moved or died. Route 28 north of Pittsburgh looks like a dump, both north and southbound lanes. It’s embarrassing!

I guess all of the PennDOT folks working on that stretch of highway aren’t responsible, since they drive by every day and the trash is still there. I’m sure they use the “not my job” phrase as their reason. But that attitude needs to be changed.

And finally, hey PennDOT, the fine for littering isn’t working!
