I am not against people who smoke cigarettes but with the dry, hot weather we are having, I can’t believe how many times in the last few days I have followed someone in my car with a cigarette hanging out the window. I watch in horror as they continue to flick hot ashes into the wind. If I was a braver soul, I would roll my window down and ask them to please use an ashtray.
Years ago, there used to be a litter hotline but with budget cuts I believe they did away with it. People need to be more aware of what they are doing. Just stop and think about it.
