A second incident was when I was holding my arm out the window and an officer pulled up next to me at the light, he proceeded to tell me I had to keep the cigarette inside the vehicle at all times, before I had a convertible.


VC2 3111 Cigarette Litter

Many people enjoy smoking while driving. Who wants to put the ash out in their car? It’s so much easier to flick the ash out of the window. Unfortunately, a cigarette litter traffic ticket under VC 23111 has more serious consequences than other types of traffic tickets because of the danger of fire caused by flicking cigarette litter, including ash or the cigarette butt itself, out of the window in your car. To get help with this ticket, you can call us at 888-250-8450.

Thanks.

Mark pretty much nailed it as taking something to an extreme since it seems that they have interpreted simply holding a cigarette or cigar as guilty under VC23111 as it actually reads:


--BEGIN
V C Section 23111 Throwing Substances on Highways or Adjoining Areas

Throwing Substances on Highways or Adjoining Areas

23111. No person in any vehicle and no pedestrian shall throw or discharge from or upon any road or highway or adjoining area, public or private, any lighted or nonlighted cigarette, cigar, match, or any flaming or glowing substance. This section shall be known as the Paul Buzzo Act.

Amended Ch. 1548, Stats. 1970. Effective November 23, 1970.

https://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/d11/vc23111.htm


--END

BTW, I had no idea this law even existed before this thread. Not that I throw lit stuff out the window, even back when I smoked cigarettes I didn't simply because it was littering and it seemed really f-ing stupid since I lived in a heavily forested area. Thanks brother!
