Mr Hand then walks up beside the car, picks up the cigarette butt and confronts the driver.
He then walks back to his car.
"So, I was at the lights and this poor lady's cigarette accidentally fell out of her hand onto the road," Mr Hand wrote.
"Being the gentleman I am, I got out picked up the cig and kindly returned it to her."

Littering in Western Australia is illegal and carries different penalties. Dropping a cigarette butt that's extinguished from a private vehicle is likely to cop you a fine of $200.
However, if you work for a company and you're in your company car, the fine is $500.
And as some commenters on the post pointed out, if the discarded cigarette is lit and could have caused a fire, the maximum penalty is $5000.
Littering can be reported online via relevant council websites.
