DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Yes, it is strictly prohibited. The General Traffic Regulations state that no object capable of causing fires (such as lit cigarette butts) or endangering traffic safety may be thrown onto the road or its vicinity. This prohibition covers the roadway, shoulders, and adjacent areas. Expert note: this infraction results in the loss of 6 points from the driving license (according to current Traffic Law) due to its severity and the high environmental and safety risks involved.
