I know in the province of Ontario if you get caught throwing a cigarette butt out the window in the summer your in HUGE trouble. Alot of forest fires are started by careless drivers tossing them out the window. I can't remember the $$$ fine but it was crazy.

Plus Ontario is a smoke free province and is now trying to ban smoking in vehicles. Its the latest war on smoking. Many provinces are now smoke free. Meaning that you can't smoke on public / government property. No smoking in resturants/ bars or inclosed areas.

You guys are funny. You don't know smoking laws until you have been in California.
No smoking in any public places or within 20 feet of them.
No smoking in your car while minors are present (Eff Jan 08')
And, obviously, no throwing the butts out the window (Biodegradable or not)
The only things you are allowed to toss out your window are ice and chicken feathers.

Not to mention the threat of a wild fire it is just down right rude! I wish I was a cop so I could give these nasty sobs a littering ticket.
Is Las Vegas the only city I know of, where you sit at an intersection, and have to inhale smoke from many a$$holes around you smoking?
Sonny beaches. I hate this.
Hey, Ok throw your butt out on the street in a city. City's are dirty. But it really makes me angry, when people throw their butts out in the country.
There is grass out there, that can catch fire.
Plus citys look good with trash in them, the country side looks like crap with cigarette butts and trash strewn around.
So my advice, is simple. You all city people stay the heck in the city. City people should be banned from the country.
Pigs need to stay in pig pens!
