Appropriate payback for flicking butts?

[sparr]

I was driving down the street (Ponce, near Briarcliff) on my scooter and someone going the opposite way flicked a cigarette out the window that hit me in the arm. Imagine my disgust and annoyance (imagine if it hit me in the face...). Now, what might be an appropriate response to this? I was considering picking it up, turning around, and throwing it back in their window, or possibly throwing something equally nasty (to them, as their cigarette was to me) in. Thoughts?

I would record the guy's license plate and reported him to the police. I know several motorcyclists that have been in serious accidents that were caused by cigarette butts thrown out of the window.

I've also heard of cases where the butts flew into open windows of other cars as well.

Not only that, there was also the possibility of the butt causing a fire had it landed in the grass. Luckily we have had a pretty wet summer, so the possibility was a small one, but it was there.
