I can't speak to quantities or rates, but I see a LOT of cigarette butts on the ground. This meme is right on target, in my experience.

My "favorite" was the time one threw their cigarette butt out the window of their car on a highway and it somehow ended up under the cowl of my windshield, so the smell was being sucked into my car by the ventilation system. And I couldn't easily get in there to remove it - I needed tools I didn't have on the road with me. At least it didn't start a fire.

That's nasty, I have a nice burn hole in my jacket because someone tossed a lit cigarette out of their window and it landed in my jacket hoodie while riding a motorcycle.

I’ve since quit, but me and my friends would dispose of our butts properly. The problem is like a single asshole can toss 20+ butts in a day. So it’s really obvious when people are shitheads, but you’ll basically never notice people are functioning members of society.

Yeah, that's why I mentioned not knowing rates - I'm sure there are people who do the right thing with them, but the ones that don't are the ones that are going to stand out.
