I'm guilty of tossing them out the window if I'm driving, but if I'm at somewhere I try to dispose properly.

Why not just have a small garbage in your car that you empty ever once in a while?

You mean like a small metal tray?
Maybe you could even sink it into the dash of the car so you could hide it when not in use too.
It could hold your ashes and butts.
I think I shall invent this and I shall call it the buttholder and one day there will be one in every car in the world :af:

I always roll the ember off the end, and toss the butt in a trash can. It's not that hard.

Stupid decision number one - smoking in the first place
Stupid decision number two - being selfish and disrespectful enough to not throw them in the trash.

I hear a lot of smokers say they don't use the ashtray because they don't want their car to smell like old cigarettes. Here's an idea... if you don't smoke in the first place your car won't smell like ass.
