Bloody 'ell !!
However, serves them right for giving the rest of us a bad reputation. Dumping 'juice' in the wrong place is a definite no no. Having said that, if local councils here provided facilities it would happen less.

When you say here, the post was in Spain where they have loads of Aires. It’s just some lazy Tosser who is now €1500 worse off for being a complete tw*t.

Yes, I'm fully aware that it was Spain, which makes it worse. I just stated that if the same facilities here it would happen here less. I've never seen illegal tank dumping on the continent, but here many times.

I would suggest hold them until a sign was spray painted on both sides of the motorhome, in several languages.
WE DUMPED ILLEGALLY
Then ecscort them home, under Blues, and make them pay for the overtime.

Unfortunately I have seen quite a few vans on the continent especially in France and Spain where the grey waste is left open, I usually point out their error, I have received thanks, raised shoulders (so what?) and been told it is only used water. I have followed trails from parking spots which are obviously down to an open grey valve.

I have also seen blue stains and toilet paper in bushes. Some people just don’t care or think of others, it’s all about themselves.

I pleased this one person got caught. I hope more get caught if that’s what they do and think is acceptable.
