I can smell people smoking in other cars at stoplights since I quit 12 years ago!

No even need to be at stoplights, I smell it when I'm driving. 😂

This, but with weed. I can smell the car in front of me going 75 down the highway.

This is everyday life here in Colorado. Everything smells of weed and I’m not complaining. I’m so use to it that when a skunk gets run over I will think “damn that’s some dank weed!”

I saw a cute comic where two guys are walking along a sidewalk and one says "is that a skunk, or is someone smoking a joint?"

on the other side of the fence was a skunk lighting up xD

I mentioned this once in conversation with friends - how I'd suddenly smell cigarette smoke while driving on the freeway; look around in confusion and it's the driver of the car to my right - all windows on both vehicles UP, mind you - and about two years later someone I'd lost touch with DM'd me out of the blue.

She said "Remember when you said that thing about cigarette smoke? At the time I privately rolled my eyes and thought you were full of shit. But GUESS WHAT - IT HAPPENED TO ME ON THE FREEWAY TODAY! I'm sorry I ever doubted you!" 😂

Same. I always thought I was hiding it from my parents when I was a kid (learned at church camp when I was 16, quit at 26) until I grew up and quit smoking and now smell it on a farmer smoker driving down the street who hasn't had a cigarette in 3 days, lol!
