Safe & Responsible DrivingStandalone practice
You are stopped at a red light. Your passenger wants to toss an empty drink cup out of the window and says it is fine because the car is not moving. What is the rule?
Correct answer: It is illegal to throw anything from a car on a road, moving or stopped.
Why
Litter can distract other drivers, damage vehicles and, in the case of cigarettes and matches, start fires. If the person who threw the item cannot be identified, the law presumes that the owner in the car, or else the driver, is responsible. Trash carried in a vehicle must also be covered so that nothing blows onto the road.
