A rant about people who dump litter in our drive

This morning I went to take in our dustbin, and beside it I found a new expensive Sainsbury's bag full of empty beer bottles, cans, sandwich wrappers and a cigarette packet. How can people be so rude as to dump rubbish on other people's property? Why can't they take it home?
We live in a lane which is part of probably the nicest walk in this town, and we do know we have to share it. But during the pandemic it has become so crowded with walkers and cyclists that we have been avoiding walking in the lane ourselves. And to have that rubbish dumped on our drive is just the limit.

I live next door to a holiday let and have trouble with renters dumping their rubbish in my bins. I throw it over the gate into the yard of the let and let the owners or the company they employ to look after their property deal with it. I don’t feel good about this, but I’m disabled and it’s hard enough to put my own bins out for collection without the weight of others garbage. People are selfish & unthinking.
