Two different times in an August when the grass was yellow and dry and it was a fire hazard I was waiting to make a left turn in a 4 lane intersection with a light when I noticed a smoldering fire starting in the grass near the curb to the right of the road I was turning onto several car length away from the intersection. After making my turn I pulled over to the right, jumped out, and stomped the beginnings of a grass fire started by someone tossing a lit cigarette.

Very interesting both times, while I was stomping the small grass fire an older car with 4 nuns in habits pulled over behind my car, all 4 jumped out and without a word each emptied a bottle of drinking water on the smoldering ashes. The again without a word got back in their car and drove away.

When I told people at work about this, their only comment was that they ask if I was the one that threw the cigarette out. Yeah, like I can throw a lit cigarette out and have it land somewhere ahead of me on my intended route. If I had thrown a lit cigarette out wouldn't it have landed somewhere behind me and I would have been long gone before it started any sort of fire? Idiot arse hole pirates.
