Default for you littering smokers...

-- "Throwing cigarette butts out of the car window is littering."
-- "Cigarette butts are the most commonly littered item, making up half of all roadside litter."
-- "It takes a cigarette butt 25 years to decompose because of the plastic in the filter."

interesting. didn't know it took that long to decompose.

And if the butt isn't out, you can start a fire.

The most interesting are the colored cigs in the UK.

If I were Phillip Moris I would sell colored and flavored cigs under the Marlboro line. They would sell like crazy and hook a large audience.

I started a pet peeve thread about this a while back. I hate people that throw cigarette butts out of the car.

As a recovering motorcyclist, I couldn't agree more. Throw a cig out the window and hit my S and I'm likely to beat your butt.

BTW, we had a nasty brush fire here yesterday that was linked to some knucklehead tossing his cig out the window. JACKASS
