LETTER: No butts about it

Dear Editor: I would like to respond to the letter about drivers throwing out “butts” from car windows because of a lack of ashtrays in newer cars. When I smoked in my car, I found a simple solution.

Dear Editor:

I would like to respond to the letter about drivers throwing out  “butts” from car windows because of a lack of ashtrays in newer cars. When I smoked in my car, I found a simple solution.

Take a small glass jar, fill it two-thirds with baking soda, and place it in a cupholder. Any butts can be poked into it. This eliminates any smouldering and extinguishes the cigarette promptly.
