Smokers Beware

Man fined over cigarette ash
A driver has been handed a £75 fine for flicking his cigarette ash out of his car window.
Alan Joyce, from Poole, Dorset, was sent a fixed penalty notice telling him to pay the fine within 14 days or face court action.

I bring this up to remind all of the smokers that cops are taking advantage of this law here to remove your hard earned cash from you. Ohio passed a new law very quietly last year making it a $500 fine for throwing your butt out of your window while driving.

I guess they need the money.

I'd like to point out the stupidity of this law by mentioning that cigarette butts ARE biodegradable. They are paper and cotton. If they were not, we would have a wall of butts along every highway four feet tall.
