my street glide has a lighter but the ashtray was an option I did not spring for. Ha. Anyway Day 3 without a smoke. Lighter is getting a rest for now, and if successful in quitting, the whole world wont be my ashtray anymore ..............
Had a cig do the fairing blast on the wife & I.
Get to the next light I pull up along side the woman and told her she might want to use the ash tray instead of my bike.
She flipped us off - I flipped the gum I was chewing in her lap.
I was a kid from Philly driving through AZ and flicked a butt out the window - Got pulled over and the trooper said that he didn't know what we did in Philly but in AZ we don't litter - I never did it again -For people who hate to get their ashtrays dirty simply carry a water bottle and put the butts in there - Smoking is bad enough but there is no reason to litter.
There is a wonderful event that many communities hold in Texas called a Trail Ride. This event consists of weekend cowboys hopping on a horse and reenacting the trail rides of the 1800. They choose the road I must ride to get to work on Saturday. Horses do not give a sh*t and will drop sh*t at the drop of a hat. It is not much fun dodging sh*t piles on the road while going to work. And to top it off if you happen to fill up on that day then you will have to watch where you put your foot down so as to not step in sh*t. That will **** you off in a heart beat.
I hand out written reminders to smokers who discard their cigarettes out the window. The written reminder also comes with a nice little fine. As a cop, folks throwing stuff out of their vehicles is my pet peeve.
Riding along the NYS thruway 65 mph just cruising enjoying the ride when the dumb *** in front of me flicks a cigarette out her window. It comes back hits my windshield (street glide windshield is short) right at the very top and now the cigarettes hot ashes explode in my face. I get up next to her (she is about 50yr old) and I start screaming but she has no clue as to what I'm pissed about. She starts weaving in and out of 4 lanes of traffic trying to get away from me so I just backed off and had to let it go. I know no one here is guilty of anything like this but if ya got a wife, girlfriend, hubby, buddy etc. just remind them to use the damn ashtray...........BG
This is definitely my biggest pet peave. I'm thinking about starting to carry pennies with me and everytime someone flicks a cigarette out their window, I'll pull in front of them and start chunking pennies at their windshield. Then maybe they'll get the idea.
Here in Florida it is not only a citation for littering but also for throwing a âlitâ object from a moving vehicle. We have a small problem with wild fires here.
