Smokers!!

[Crazy Steve]

So im driving in Auckland today....And as I pulled behind a newest Bmw..
I noticed two of the occupants where smoking..the driver right then throw his butt out of the window and straight on to the road...Then drove off from lights...At the next set of lights the Bmw stopped in front of me again...And this time the passanger throw her butt out of the window and straight on to the road..
I jumped out of my truck and approched the Bmw..And kindly ask the driver how many times in one day he would litter(WITH BUTTS)

He replied"I dont know is it illegal to do it"

I said yes of course it fcking is!!!!!

Then I advised the driver and passenger that If I ever caught them littering in front of me again...I would put the butt back in to there car...

As that is where it belongs??

Or does it now belong on the road side as it is now there??

What would you do Frankie you pussy????

You would probaly shit your pants aye!!!!

But I would like to know if anyone says anything when fckers litter in this green green country....New Zealand...:)

[inlinefour]

I agree with you 100%. It is my biggest hate on the road. :angry2:

[Sensei]

Worse when it hit's you in the face when you are on ya Bike :angry2:

...And kindly ask the driver how many times in one day he would litter(WITH BUTTS)

But I would like to know if anyone says anything when litter in this green green country....New Zealand...:)That would have been good to witness, I would have backed you up if I was there. I wholeheartedly agree that littering, in any form, is a disgraceful act and that the perps should be caught & punnished! :eyepoke:

It's been a pet hate of mine for years to see smokers throw butts out of car windows, even just smokers who stub out their butts with their feet while standing outside is quite a filthy act, but what can you really do about it? I like your vigilante stand on the issue but the general truth is that it is habitual for smokers to litter their cancer sticks all over the countryside without giving thought to "keeping NZ clean", so your efforts to prevent it will probably be in vain. The prevention must come from the 'litterer' himself...then again I'm all for tougher fines/punnishment laws against littering, but is that the answer?

[John]

Thats why I never ride visor up around dorks like that :(

[Lee Rusty]

A smoker flicked his butt out while I was along side him waiting for the lights, it landed in my lap on the bike. I grabbed it my gloves as the lights changed.
At the next lights I flicked it back in his open window on to his back seat - he nearly shit himself as I gave him his heritage. Lights changed I rode off.
I watched in the mirrors as he jumped out of car ripped back door open and tried to find butt.

He copped all the abuse from those behind him and beside him as he had back door open blocking lane as well - bet he used ashtray after that.

[Frankie]

I'd kick your white thrash arse... you've never seen me cunt... dont start shit you cant finish... you may be surprised :wari:

I think THAT is a great way to deal with THAT situation. However, I don't agree with Crazy-Steve jumping out his truck and getting all agressive with the driver. Personally I think there are way too many agressive and easily upset people in NZ. Yes it's littering and yes I think thats wrong, but it's one of those things you're just not going to be able to stop.

[Gremlin]

Is it actually illegal?? If it is, I'm going to make a stand then. Disgusting.

Don't have to be aggressive, but politely inform him it is illegal and that it would be good if he stopped being so selfish.

If he gave me shit, I would either haul him through the window (if I'm in a really bad mood) or just simply give the butt back.

yes its illegal, cause its littering in a public place.h

[Waylander]

Hmm. Noted I will keep all mine from now on though I rarely smoke outside my own yard. I do put them out atleast to keep them from starting any fires.

[Krusti]

I find I have problems smoking over 100kph....flip front helmet tends to catch the wind...bloody lighter wont work...put butt in ash tray butt it just blows away!

People tend to get pissed off when I light up when re fueling too...whats wrong with you people..:killingme

[Sniper]

Nice call Krusti.

I hate smokers, both my folks were and then my 14 year old sister started!!!, Never forgave them for that, but I can never understand why cancer stick people just dont seem to care about anyone else???

[ktulu]

I was sitting in my truck on the side of the road in pt chev last year having some morning tea when this young asian chap walks along the footpath, finishes eating his pie, drops the pie wrapper on to the foot path.

Fuck I absolutely saw red, jumped out of my truck, told him to "pick up your fucken rubbish, don't you dare treat my country with that kind of lack of respect you little fuck, you're lucky I don't kick your fucken ass" or something along those lines.

Bet he never did it again, didn't harm anyone and made our country a better place.

If we all stopped one person from littering for the rest of the forseeable future our country would be litter free

[Lee Rusty]

I'd kick your white thrash arse... you've never seen me cunt... dont start shit you cant finish... you may be surprised :wari:

If your making a general statement about smokers not caring then thats not fair I smoke, I always try keep it away from other people smokers or non smokers - and I get pretty fucked off when I see, littering, spitting etc.

Also on the cancer stick note, when you think of the proportion of smokers in the world/nz and compare it to the direct deaths resulting from 'cancer sticks' you will be surprised, but take it with a grain of salt.

Anther note on that is my dad smoked all his life from 9 upto 86 odd, but then suffered prostate cancer, its funny that he actually got sick after he stopped smoking.. oh well live and let live.

[flyin]

Thats the attitude we need to have!!, too many people think "everyone does it already, I cant change the world"
If we influence the people around us they may pass the message on, and then on........people react to seeing someone else standing up for something they believe in better than seeing it mentioned on tv.........


Oh and yeah its $150 fine for dropping a ciggy butt from a moving vehicle! nasty little things contain hundreds of toxins and they are not biodegradable so are piling up and F**king our planet!!!

and if one smoker says they can't do shit themselves because theres so many other smokers think about the quantity of these "poison pellets" each one of them pays to create every week...year......

when someone DECIDES to smoke they are dis-respecting the planet, the people around them and most of all themselves! sure one may not get a terminal illness directly related to smoking but the symptoms of smoking tobacco are evident after smoking for a matter of weeks!!

[onearmedbandit]

Umm, I think you could apply that statement to just about everything us humans do. Think about it. And yes I am a smoker, I am considerate to others decision to not smoke so all you self-righteous lot look in your own back yard first.

Better than a fine, is catching the butt and throwing it back in the window. Did that to a woman on the Hutt motorway and then found out the next day it was a colleague's wife. :)

The colleague thought it was hilarious too, and explained to his wife that I was wearing a $700 textile jacket that was flammable. She has since given up smoking and a big chunk of that reason was the "active response" from a non-smoker to her thoughtless littering. Like most of them she hadn't given a moment's thought to the repercussions of her actions.

I have the same attitude to people who fart in public.....don't they care about the ozone layer...selfish bastards...This thread has given me the strength to make a stand next time...I'll ram it back up their arse....:msn-wink:

[Crazy Steve]

I didnt say i was agressive...

At no time did rase my voice or arms..

Just spoke to them as normal...

And Sensia what style do you do??

[Ms Piggy]

I didnt say i was agressive...

Just spoke to them as normal...
Since I believe Stoney is off at the Rally I will answer on his behalf as to why he assumed you were aggressive. Let me quote your origional post and examine it shall we...

I said yes of course it fcking is!!!!!I believe Mr Crazy, the fact that you used a profanity i.e "fcking" and also included four exclamation marks would indicate that a raised voice or some aggression was used in communicating your displeasure at the thoughtless act of the BMW driver & his/her passenger. Good on ya for telling them though.

Btw ktulu - it's not only young "asian" chaps that litter our beautiful country, I have seen many NZers littering their own country. I do agreee though, that if we did appraoch people it could make a difference.

I even get peeved about people throwing things like apple cores & orange peels on the ground or in public gardens, their justification is: "It's biodegradable." My argument is that if we all did it, public gardens etc would look like a tip.

[Gremlin]

I often through rubbish on the ground when I'm at work. But since I'm a labourer for a residential housing company, I have to pick it all up when I do a site clean up... :lol:

[Gen]

Exactly. Think about the toxins and pollutants that come out of your exhausts. Not exactly planet friendly now is it??
I'm sick of hearing shit about smokers, I do my best to keep my smoke away from others.You may not like it, and yes some people are disrespective, but you have to accept that it will always be there.

[Crazy Steve]

What do you reckon??

Or you still having your arse wiped???

I'm not keen on throwing food waste on the ground, but surely a bit of biomass is going to do more good than harm for a garden?

Apple cores?? As a kid, I noticed my mum eating the core (she doesn't anymore), so for fun I tried.

Now I just throw any stalks away, eating apple cores also saves on trying to dump the core. It has come in handy when on buses etc. Plus you get every bit of apple as well... Its just habit now, although there is the rare apple that has a bad tasting core, so I throw that away...

Do you eat your banana skins too? What about orange peels?

[Gremlin]

:killingme :killingme :killingme Knew you'd think I was nuts...

No, just apple cores. I often eat a couple of apples a day, you'd be amazed at the number of looks I get. Then again, you probably wouldn't be.

Hang on, thinking about it, I always eat grape pips (can't be stuffed getting them out), usually end up swallowing prune pips, nectarine pips ands cherry pips by accident (don't care), had the odd apricot pips umm... anymore??

I am normal aren't I?? Please tell me I am... :whistle:

[N4CR]

Gremlin.. you ever had appendicitis (sp).
I used to eat pips in everything then I was told that it runs in our family... and is easily triggerd by pips in your digestive system getting stuck or something.

And yes I used to eat cores on apples and pears (still eat pears mmmmm)

[Krusti]

I have allways eaten apple cores....Kiwi fruit skins etc... My mum told me not to waste food or she would give it to those poor starving people...offered the cored to be sent but she wouldn't so I eat them...:niceone:

Use to do that when I was driving busses. Most Asians are pretty good about litter and will walk some distance to deposit there rubbish. But I remember on one occasion I picked up a group of asian students and there was one guy who stood out from the rest. Lots of gold chain, smooth looking, well dressed etc. While he waited for the students to get on I noticed that he pulled out a piece of gum and threw the wrapper on the ground. Told him that if he wanted to litter his own country too go back home but not to do it to mine. Meek as a lamb he got off the bus, picked up the wrapper and put it in the bin. Use to do exactly the same with our youth. If they did not go and get it, and put it in the bin, I did not leave the stop untill they did. Occasionly I would get one smart fucker who would take me on and not move.

"Don't you understand what I said?" No response. Ask again still no response.

Then I would resort to another tactic. "Are you under the influence of drugs or alchohol?" That would get a big loud no and and the evil eye.

Sorry arsehole, "I don't believe you. I asked a simple question and you did not 'understand" what I said. Sling ya hook sunshine or I get the Police." That usually moved them.

All this because some low-life beleived they could litter with impunity.

There were times when I had fun.

Many of these pips,(including apples ) are a rich source of cyanide.Fortunately if you don't chew them they don't get digested. :sick:

Nope. and pears taste horrible.

:sick: Never knew that. Maybe I'll try to cut back on my diet of pips. I never eat them intentionally, just that you're trying to get all the flesh off the pip, swallow flesh to spit pip out, then oops, you've swallow the pip.

Still eat apple cores though. Just to used to it. Only annoying part of it is when the hard greeney bits get really stuck between your teeth, but you learn how to eat it properly...

People who litter do not bother me. I would have left the beemer driver alone personally.

If i was at an intersection with the beemer and the cigarette went through my visor I would be pissed off though!!

Apricot pits and bitter almond, a completely separate food from commonly consumed sweet almonds, may cause significant illness or even death if chewed and swallowed, but these are not foods most people would find appetizing.
Never thought that being careless/lazy could lead to so many problems.

I have swallowed apricot pits accidentally, but nothing happened. Maybe I should be more careful...

nah, I'm 21 and bulletproof. :headbang:

Never felt a thing.

I remember swallowing it, and thinking ooh shit, this is not the way to eat an apricot, but then, never thought about it. You feel weird for about a sec as it goes down, but then you are fine. (disclaimer: don't try this at home, it takes a trained idiot to do it)

Maybe I wasn't fed properly as a child... :lol:

It's all good Crazy Steve. I actually think, after reading this thread, that taking a stand and saying something is the right thing to do. Those that know me will know, while I'd like to do this, I cannot.

A good point (made I think by Jim2) is that riding gear is bloody expensive! A lit cigarette does not look good on your lap!

That are the fecking problem arsewipe. I've got a mate who'd probably like to shove his street sweeper broom down your throat. Cunts like you should not be allowed to ride, let alone own a bike. I remember the days as a kid. Returning home from gin trapping and every so often there would be a burnt out patch where some arsewipe has thrown a live cig butt out their window. Its wankers like you that are the main problem in society, that is, think that you can do whatever you want and fuck everyone else :moon: :bash: :Pokey: :tugger: :finger: :bs:

[flyin]

We would not be able to put street sweepers out of work simply by placing ciggy butts in the bin and tidying up after ourselves, think about Singapore where smoking in public is illegal and you get find for spitting or dropping/chewing gum!! they still have street cleaners who work as hard, if not harder than ours.

I know the problem...

You should get one of those flip top ashtrays, they work real well.

My problem is getting the lighter out from under the seat (where the GPS connector lives) My next bike I think I will attach it somewhere near the cockpit.

Texts are hard, but not impossible if the phone is in the tank bag...
Tried the headset twice, but on the first occasion I ran out of range, the next I was going to fast to hear the auto answer pick up... my client found out i sometimes talk my way round corners...

Setting the GPS is real daft nearly come a cropper a few times doing that...

But smoking is easy, flip up the lid (on the system 4) and puff away...

[QUOTE=Zed]what twit smokes while riding anyway?? QUOTE]

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present for your amusement, the latest invention from the good ol' US of A thought worthy of protecting by means of a patent:

"US20040004067A1: Combination cigarette lighter and casing for a motorcycle

A combination cigarette lighter and a casing in which the cigarette lighter is carried to be attached to the existing framework of a motorcycle without requiring any structural changes thereto. The casing is located on the motorcycle within easy reach so that riders may conveniently light their cigarettes while on the go away from home. An end cap is pivotally connected to the casing and rotated between a closed configuration at which to cover the cigarette lighter and an open configuration at which the cigarette lighter is removed from or returned to the casing. A ball and detent locking feature is provided by which to retain the end cap in either of the closed or open configurations relative to the casing so as to prevent the end cap from flapping back and forth and possibly disturbing the operator of the motorcycle."

This is a genuine patent application in the US that I stumbled across at work. I would attach the whole document, but...meh

Whats funnier is when it auto answers through voice and they hear the bike, and think wtf? then they hear the revs gain and then clutch drop.

Then they call you later that night and ask about your antics :)

This shows how things change. Did this myself, but then it was considered acceptable pre- the bleeding-heart animal rights people getting their way.

Nice call Krusti.

I hate smokers, both my folks were and then my 14 year old sister started!!!, Never forgave them for that, but I can never understand why cancer stick people just dont seem to care about anyone else???
I think your generalising a bit there dude. I smoke, but I always do it away from people who dont. I do realise how it must piss people off, but the old PC Brigade approach really erks the fuck out of me.

Das funny! A real old thread dredge with some "old" posters joining in...

I sense de ja vu...

Geez its a fucking ciggie butt. I saw someone talking on a cellphone at a petrol station once and there was a sign saying not to do that so I thought he was a real badarse for breaking the law.

But I didn't do anything about it.
