Ppl dont pay attention to cars either...it's not just limited to not noticing bikes
Couple yrs back, I was driving an unmarked Cop car. Pulled up next to a college age girl at a red light. She was in the middle of a big mac, when she decided she was full, and tossed 1/2 a burger out the window....and on to the hood of my car.
She was majorly PO'd over a $160+ ticket for littering. She took it to court, on the premise that food is "Biodegradeable", and therefore is not "litter". The Judge didn't agree.

Wait until the ashes hit you in the face doing 65 mph first...That kinda gets me. I don't sweat cages until they almost kill me...They have no idea what the world looks like from a bike.

How many of you have had some idiot cager throw out a ciggarette right in front of you? Not only are they showing disreguard for our environment but COMPLETE disreguard for the person behind them.They might as well just throw out an empty bottle in front of you.

Last year I was following behind a 4 door pickup with three guys in it and one by one they each threw a cig out at me... What a bunch of inconsiderate jerks.

Everyday I have someone either throwing cig butts or flicking their ashes when I approach to pass their vehicles. Glad I have a tall windshield on the UC. I dont let it bother me anymore or I would be pissed off everyday. Hmm or maybe in jail.

I sometimes like to smoke a big cigar when i ride and i can tell you i can see it keeps the cagers off my tail. I would not even think of letting it fly and hit any one to my rear but it might come in handy if a cager let one fly on me. When i ride with buddies i always ride in the rear.
