That's so sad that there is no chance for an honest citizen to pickup the wallet, open it up, and read the drivers license so that he can return it to the proper owner. When you eliminate the chance of someone doing a bad deed, then it is likely that you also eliminate the chance of doing a good deed as well. I bet nobody over there would want to even take the chance of being mistaken for a thief.
