only in America......unfortunately the Qld govt is considering banning smoking,eating,drinking(softies) in cars at the present.

So whats next you can't talk to your pax.

This goes back to a thread I posted last year about "Dick Johnson said on Aunty" he is a member of several road safety committees...in which he stated the above should not be allowed.

What DJ fails to remember is...the early days of Bathurst where drivers would eat their lunch during their stint and....(god forbid) smoke while they were racinging.

Well I'll be the first and say what a great move, they stink like ИИИИИ. I don't care if people smoke, just not near me. I hate when some idiot blows it in my face. The sooner they ban it the better. No actually, I say put more chemicals in them, kill off the people that a stupid enough to smoke in the first place...

I think its great! should be law here too.

I just cant stand it down at children type events, like carols by candlelight or whatever, when there are thousands of people around, and one idiot lights up blowing smoke in all the little kids faces. Certainly should be illegal here too. The 6 metre rule is quite logical, and not too bad for smokers I would say.
