Default Ban smoking in all vehicles, doctors demand

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/8583551.stm

Smoking should be banned in all cars as well as in public places where young people congregate, doctors are urging.

The Royal College of Physicians wants England's imminent review of anti-smoking laws to consider such measures to protect the young.

It says passive smoking results in 300,000 extra child visits to GPs in the UK every year for problems such as asthma and bacterial meningitis.

But driving and smoking lobby groups (big tobacco companies) say cars are a "private space".

This makes perfect sense and it is a horrible thing to do in a car and totally greedy and unnecessary
