This is my first street bike.got a 08 Nightster and she runs pretty nice.I have been married for 23 years and the wife is the boss(so she thinks).My problem is that I need input on how to handle this .Seems that people like to throw cigarettes out their windows and sun roofs. I especially notice the fire at night.I commute approx 45 miles each way for work so with gas prices so high here in Knoxville Tn. I bought me my bike and every evening I have atleast 1 or 2 cars throw their butts out. I am a smoker too but I never EVER throw them out on the street.Thats what the Ashtray is for ,Right? Any how ,before I get the road rage thing grooving,I would like anyones suggestions on how i should or shouldn't respond.I would enjoy hearing others stories on this subject..I was riding home on friday night 1/11 and had the pleasure of a lit cigarette chucked on me. We were driving speed limit plus, on a windy night with some strong gusts and this jerk throws one out all over my windshield. Needless to say I got Pi$$ed off and proceeded to inform driver of such. Pulled up next to him and said "Thanks for the cigarette all over me" as loud as I could scream after he rolled the window down and gave me the finger.I waved back.And left him in the dust for a couple minutes to keep away from the car.He proceeded to catch up and was flashing his lights high and low beams and giving me the finger.I could have stopped but someone (him or me) could get killed and i didn't want to give it a go. I think I could stand on my own but was taught to try to avoid conflict if possible and if you can't HIT 'em HARD and run your a$$ off.
