Yeah, but watch them enforce it when they can't even control litter droppers (and that includes f@g ends and gum).

Or fkers on their mobile, probably 1 in every 10 cars I see in London someone's yakking on the phone, maybe more.

What's worse is seeing people using their mobiles to text or look at the internet.

I see it all the time. They're driving along at 30-50 mph, in busy traffic, staring down at their phones.

Tbh, 75% of the time, it's a woman

All comes to ugly fruition when you see them careening indicator-less around a roundabout

Tobacco is very  good, should be encouraged, improves your brain capacity.
Will definately help with exams.

Is it possible that more childre die, or are injured in car accidents than suffer from tobacco
smoke. Not sure.
Report Dr Crippen • July 17, 2014 6:12 PM BST
Simply stop children from travelling in cars.
You can't get much safer than that.

What if a copper stops a car that's full of smoke and it's the kids who are smoking?
What then?

I just stop the car at the side of the road and make the kids get out while I have a smoke LaughLaugh

Open the windows in London in the rush hour and die of exhaust fumes instead.

The air quality in London is the worst in Europe. Almost the worst in the world.

4,000 people per year die prematurely as a result

Around two weeks ago a car passed me coming in opposite direction - child around 3 years old -  head and shoulders hanging out of the passenger window! He was in the passenger seat for goodness sake - not as if the dopey idiot  mother driving couldn't see what he was doing! Nothing to do with smoking I know but shear iresponsibility..............

Just last year approx. 3 miles from where I live - young child died after falling out of a moving car! They want people to stop smoking in cars with children? - with this sort of thing happening - no chance.
