as far as i know throwing a cigarette butt out the window IS littering, i think you can be fined for it

I got pulled over for it once... no ticket though. I was like WTF? anyway, most new cars don't come with ashtrays and there fore out the window it goes.

most cars don't come with garbage bags so if i have a mcdonalds bag, out the window it goes

it is, you can, but i would imagine it rarely ever happens.

my brother got a pretty expensive ticket for doing this last week... but it might be because the cops in that neighborhood like to profile minorities

This is one of my peeves too. I actually said something to a guy yesterday for this. He wasn't in a car though. He was on the sidewalk with a kid. And just tossed it on the ground right in front of me. I just looked at him and said, "nice example for your kid," as I walked by.

What would you suggest he do with the butt? Cities provide trash cans on the streets for litter. If they provided ashtrays ashtrays, I'd gladly use them.

Field the butt. Roll out the lit cherry, step on it. Hold onto the filter, deposit it in a trash can when you next encounter one.

I did this for years. Now I just don't smoke cigarettes with filters, and I refuse to believe that the dried leaves I drop out my car window are litter.

should i go on... Yea, smoking is dumb, but A LOT of people do it including myself. This thread was about a pet peave. An annoyance, but why do you care so much about what i do on public highways. if you go outside your house and there is a ton of cigarette butts there then i would be pissed, and i would say something to someone. If there is an ashtray around i use it, if there is a trash can i use it, but in the car... sorry boys and girls... out the window they go.

how is this a reason for you to leave your crap wherever you want?

maybe the guardian angels should patrol the streets with ashtrays.
