The ashtray is on the wrong side for a start, but flicking dogends out and getting caught does result in a £50 fine in these parts. At least I haven't got that worry anymore and my car smells nice now (well, it will do when I get my sense of smell back!) and just out of curiousity, how far were you from the car in front?
