Under the Citizens Air Complaint Program, they can record idling trucks or buses, report them and keep 25% of any fines, which typically range from $350 to $600.
Even if you aren’t doing it 6-9 hours a day like this guy is, getting a cool $75-$150 for making a report while out of the house anyway doesn’t sound bad at all.
Given it’s targeting businesses violating a city ordinance that’s in place to reduce pollution, I don’t see an issue with it. If it was people snitching on other citizens for minor violations or something, I’d be against it.
I guess the qualifier for me is, is the law something that’s in place for public good? If so, it should be enforced.
Jokes aside, this is a pretty rad program.

Snitches get riches.
I’m cool with people snitching on someone pouring greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere.
So am I. If I wasn’t, I’d have written “stitches” instead of “riches”.
This bounty hunterish thing is wild for me, I actually don’t know what to think about it. Good or bad?

That’s supposed to be the case for every law.
Yes, but it’s also a pandoras box IMO.
