Do you throw trash out of your car window while driving?

Never. I hate those lazy f^ckers that litter. I've witnessed it before and wished I could write them a ticket myself. It disgusts me to see beer bottles, cans, fast food wrappers and the like on the way to work. Most people have no respect for their environment. It's a big pet peeve of mine.

If its fruit (eg bannana skin) then, yes. Because its bio-degradable.

Otherwise no.

Make sure ya get it far from the road... or you are just making more road kill [Loring in animals]
 
In PA, your title renewal includes a statement that you understand there is a $300 fine for littering, and that the owner of the vehicle is responsible no matter who is driving at the time of the offense.

People who throw trash out of a car are the lowest form of scum. I can understand tossing an apple core while out in the country as it will either be eaten or biodegrade, but other than that it's inexcusable. I can't believe how many times I have seen people throw a cig butt out of a car. If the cops would accept videotape evidence I could put a camera on my dash and easily get three or four cars a week.

I will toss an apple core or such sometimes in a rural area though.

One apple core doesn't count as trash IMO. It's food for some roadside creature or at the very least it will rot quickly and become fertilizer.
 
nope, i keep it in my glove box or cup tray and throw it away when i get home.

but i rarely ever have trash within my car, i dont eat in my car.

I used to throw trash out of my car window from time to time but I haven't done it in a long while. Today though I threw out a styrofoam coffee cup while on the Parkway doing 65mph. The god damn thing was sliding on the floor and was getting on my nerves. I'll try not to do it again as I know it's a white trash thing to do and I want to and should have more respect for mother earth.

So what about you?

No, and you suck at polls.
 
Never, except apple cores, peach pits, etc. when out on country roads. The inside of either of my cars should provide all the proof you'd need that I keep the rest of the garbage in the car.
 
No, no, no, no, no. As the signs around here say, "LITTERING IS unlAWFUL". Few things distract from a city or the countryside like pieces of paper and plastic lining the roads. 🙁 I don't litter, and I don't let anyone in my car litter, either.

Don't mess with Texas!
 
Sheezus, every gas station, rest area, parking lot, etc has garbage pails. Does it kill people to wait until they get to one to throw stuff out?
