As a youngster living in northeast England back in the early sixties I recall seeing signs on older buses saying 'spitting is prohibited'. I guess it was an early 20th century problem in this part of England at least.
If possible, I recommend adding a shit radar to the spit radar, specially to combat dog poop and cow dung on the streets. I recently had stepped into one strategically placed dog poop that led to a wasted 30 mins trying washing it off my crocs.
I remember that.. ugh ... nasty.. and often the spit was orange it seemed.. I was told that was a drug ..?...
Maybe if people were told that we need our spit/ fluids... scare them into dehydration..?!...
LOL
I thoroughly enjoy your well-written pieces. Great work. "Spitfalls" was clever as heck/hell. "Expectoration" is my nominee for word of the year.
lol, thanks a lot, Jack. It's great to know when the humor lands!

That's interesting. Good point, Harry.
And then there is urination and defecation in public followed by “stick no bills”.
