Title: Wildfires
Post by: frankie on 13 Sep, 2021, 01:42:34 pm

There have been wildfires in Andalucia around Estapona.  One firefighter has died since fires started last wednesday.  Please be careful and do not throw cigarettes out of car windows.  Recently I have seen several people doing this as I've driven behind them.  What on earth are they thinking about?  Even with a bit of drizzle this morning the campo is a dry tinder and once alight, would spread rapidly.

Drivers will lose 4 points for putting other drivers at risk, throwing objects on the road that could cause accidents or 🔥 fire 🔥. Don't know what the penalty is for a passenger doing the same?

Whilst this may be a good idea, in practice I cannot see it making any difference as the Police would need to be travelling behind the vehicle when anything was thrown out.
