Wade:  I am with you.  

I am actually pretty good about this.  Last year someone had dumped a box of 
16 penny nails on the road going up Genesee to Governor.  I stopped and picked 
them all up.  As I remember there were over 200 nails.  

Of course the fact that it was on the uphill made it more attractive to 
stop...  :-)

I do try to make a habit of picking up anything that looks like a road 
hazard.  Nails and stuff, if there are not too many, I slip em under the legs of my 
shorts.  Glass, not so big on glass, no real way to deal with it.

I also remove tree branches and road work signs that have been left behind.  
Last year there were some signs left on that same section of road for over 
three weeks, I finally moved them out of the road and up the bank aways.  If the 
road signs are in a fast section of the road, I tend to move them a long 
ways....
