next: ban on drinking alcohol around anyone under 18. That'll 'make sense' too I guess

At what point do you stop micro-managing people because of the few? Not a single smoker I know would not wind down windows if there's a non-smoker in the car, nor smoke with a small child in the car. Obviously that does happen, but again, to ban smoking with anyone under 18 (16 is legal to buy cigs) in the car, windows rolled down, is just a cash grab - albeit a clever one because of the emotions it stirs in people, as they immediately think of small kids being suffocated by smoke rather than a perfectly legal 17 year old smoker as a passenger. Very very slippery slope. |

besides that - the point should not be how 17 year olds can legally smoke in a car, it should focus on why kids start smoking at that age and how to prevent that - like not selling cigarettes to anyone under 18.

It's not about at 16 it's ok, at 15 it's not.. it's about the fact a law was brought in, that will penalise a legal smoker for smoking in their own car full of other legal smokers, because someone somewhere got emotional about small children having to endure 2nd hand smoke, and confusing it with a rational idea. It's about lawmakers deciding they know what's best, and seeing how this goes, before pushing on and saying because you have 1 beer, your body/mind is impaired, and eg you cannot legally drink with an under 18 year old in the house in case of some danger like [insert case of random man who fell asleep after a beer and his 15 year old son did xyz here]. |

I won't drive with someone that is smoking. Too bad the average 10-year-old doesn't have that same choice.

And alcohol was used, if you could actually read and comprehend comparisons, and be able to distinguish them from duplicates, to illustrate that many, many kids suffer beatings and physical harm from an older persons actions - call that '2nd hand drinking', if you will, seeings as it's not just kids that feel effects of an idiot drinker's actions. eg Drink driving is illegal because that driver damages others by his actions, not his alcohol fumes ![]() |

Tell me what damage 2nd hand smoke is going to cause a legal, 16 year old smoker in your car, with the windows rolled down, that it justifies a £50 on the spot fine? Are we really that mollycoddled a society these days? |

Playing loud music with a baby isn't a smart idea either, and will certainly damage their ears... should we pass a law with £50 on the spot fines if you have loud music in your vehicle with a voluntary 16 year old passenger in it? |

Chances are, no one's going to give a crap about (read: not likely to enforce the law) 17 year olds smoking in the car. You have the 20% "what about the extremes" cases under your microscope, I look at it from the practical, real life "how it's expected to be enforced for 80% of the cases" angle. Simple 80/20 is most likely to apply here as well. I don't think this has anything to do with the pussification of society, instead I see this as much needed progression towards a more health conscious society (which I think the UK is in dire need of). Just my two cents. |

I'd be interested to see other's in this thread's view on banning say guns (*), because of the 1% that are too stupid to keep them out of kid's reach, or have a meltdown and decide today is a good day to have a massacre, etc. As I keep attempting, and obviously failing, to iterate - this isn't me saying it's fine to smoke in a car with the windows rolled up when you have a 10 year old in the car, it's about the govt's latest cash grab (and anyone who thinks this won't be used as an excuse to stop any car with what appears to be anyone under 18 if the driver is smoking, to earn some money, is living in fantasy land - the old bill are going to have a field day pulling over teenagers in hot hatches with a car full of their mates, even if they are the greatest teenagers around on their way to a movie, whatever) and how far they'll twist the 'for the safety of children', or 'national security', or 'war on drugs', or 'war on terror', or whatever other spin they can put on something to make it more acceptable to the masses, when it comes to earning a few quid ![]() * or more to the point, dishing out on the spot fines. Why a fine? Why not a charge of endangerment or some such? Because that involves more work, and less ROI. The whole fining thing means someone who is a rich but asshole father, can smoke as often as he wants with a 2 year old child in the car, and just pay the fine each time he's caught. With govt's, there's ALWAYS an angle, and as per usual, in this case it's about $$$. |

Personally I've never understood why it was ever safe or legal to start lighting up in a metal box full of petrol, full stop. But as Jel has shown yet again the clueless bastards that make the laws in this country can't even think through the most basic of consequences.
They want to ban smoking, they want to stop you boozing, they want to stop you making porn. BUT they don't have the balls to do it outright so they start all this bullshit tinkering. That's why ATVOD exists. The Tories coined the phrase regarding Labour back in 2001 "stealth taxes". What you have now in the UK is "stealth communism". **Disclaimer, I am a lifelong Tory voter but will not be voting for them in 2015. I will only vote "AT ALL" if there is a chance that UKIP might kick out my local LABOUR MP. |

I get where you are coming from Jel, the govt will soon be asking us for a daily stool sample to check we are eating what they tell us to do.

If you smoke near me, not only do I hope the gov't will be asking for a daily stool sample, I hope that they will be personally retrieving the sample straight out of your butt with a pair of rusty forceps.

As long as the public is convinced that cigarettes give you cancer. Real ban should be on having open fires in households as you can inhale tobacco smoke try do it with any other plant. Many other timbers or foliage will produce far more toxic gases that will do far more harm. Either you have cancer genes ready to mutate or you don't. As a comfort thing i can agree on the ban with any passenger regardless of age but to be convinced it is going to kill them i am not.

Great law! Sad there needs to be one to encourage common sense.
That would be lovely. At the very least in closed spaces. I do miss going out to a restaurant and not smelling like an ashtray at the end of the night.
