Who owns Fluffy dog found on motorway?

Fluffy dog found on motorway Fluffy dog found on motorway

A FLUFFY – and floppy – dog has been taken into police custody – in the hope of reuniting it with its owner.

The toy animal was spotted at the roadside by patrol officers who think it could have been dropped or accidentally thrown from a vehicle.

Anyone who recognises the toy that was found at the side of the westbound carriageway of the M27 at junction three to Southampton, can contact officers at Totton Roads Policing Unit on 101.

Throwing out a mcdonalds carton would instigate a fine, but throwing out a fluffy toy would not?

It does not take a great deal of intelligence to arrive at the conclusion that the McDonalds bucket would most probably have been thrown by an adult and the fluffy toy by a child.

One is supposed to have reached the age of responsibility, the other not.

Just trying to determine where you draw the line between objects thrown, and what will constitute a fine or not.

At least Hampshire police realised it was a stuffed animal this time.

The line being, the age of responsibility.

Only if it were still attached to the trousers.

Theoretically, so an adult throws out Mcdonalds wrappers and gets a fine, another adult throws out a cuddly toy, and the police try and find the owner.

Aww I think this is a lovely thing to do!

Being a mother myself I understand how distressing it can be for a child to lose a much loved toy.

I hope the cuddly toy is reunited with its owner soon :)

If the cuddly toy was thown by an adult, then of course they would/should be fined. If they accidentally dropped it, while carrying a child, then of course not.

I had assumed that you were a responsible adult, and was quite surprised that you should ask such a question.

I suppose that responsible and adult are two different things, and one does not necessarily go with the other.
