I've seen tons do that.

yeah, and even worse is they dont consider it to be a fire hazard. many a time ive seen little fires burning in nature strips etc because of stupid smokers. and of course bush fires are often caused by these morons. i guess they dont want to get their ashtray dirty...

Another Amsterdam example again, but this time I think it might be a good idea. They want to make street vendors responsible for keeping an area of 25 meters around their place clean. There are a lot of fast food sellers who don't take care of their garbage bags and the customers end up littering the area around the shop. The city feels the seller should take care of the mess that's made.
