Who is asking you to explain, when local authorities can't access that 
data? Which night - I'm sure they (whoever "they" are) don't check every 
lay-by every dawn. And with 93% of flytipping taking place in urban 
areas, and as organised activities by cowboy builders and others, rather 
than individuals doing a random dump, a mattress at a deserted lay-by is 
a low-frequency event anyway.
