    Default Blatant littering.

    Saw someone hurl a coffee cup, lid and straw out their car window onto the street, roll up their window and continue on as if that is totally normal.

    Littering should be a kill-on-site crime.

    Can we add flicking butts out the window to the list of summary execution offenses?

    Where's Judge Dredd when you need him?

    I think the fines have increased dramatically, but, predictably, the smokers I know are now littering theirs butts on purpose in defiance of the new increased fines.

    Yes please. I started picking up people's cigarette butts, then telling them "Oops, you dropped something" and hand it back to them or put it in the 'butt-stop' thing. Is it that hard to keep it with you until you find a proper disposal? I put my recyclables in my bag until I get home

    People who litter really irk me. I don't know how they can just throw their trash onto the ground and not give a shit.

    So what? Someone will eventually pick it up. Doesn't seem like a big issue to me.

    I hope you're joking.

    No? Well our tax dollars are paying for your special care assistant to pick up your sh!t. So I'd rather not pay their overtime, thanks.

    Probably picked up by the wind and thrown onto someone's front lawn then and THEY picked it up for you. You're a great neighbor.

    Seriously - I find it funny in a way how we find people are on totally different ends of the spectrum on this one. (Though I figure more would lean in Creeper's direction)

    Personally, I try to avoid it much as I can. I might throw food out the window at most. But that's good for the wildlife.

    I hate the blatant littering and cigarette throwing also, another one I saw today was people emptying their entire ashtrays from their car in a parking lot, so you have a few dozen cigarette butts and ashes, looks really nice.

    BIG LAWL at the OP for giving a shit about a disposable coffee cup/lid/straw out the window and yet his smoking 'friends' throw their cigarette butts out in public for fun.

    Do you happen to know this upstanding lady?

    Not only are your friends engaging in a completely disgusting act, they feel the need to leave the evidence wherever they can. What makes your friends any better then the guy that throws garbage out of his car whenever he has it?

    Start carrying a gun to shoot your friends to try and get your idea of a good law passed.
