Adults should be banned from smoking in cars when children are passengers, the new head of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health has said.
In a BBC News website Scrubbing Up column, Professor Terence Stephenson, said children deserved protection.
SourcePersonally I think they should mind their own business - the anti smoking lobby has become too strong. However, this bit made me larf the most: -
He said the Canadian province of New Brunswick, California, South Australia and Cyprus had already introduced such legislation successfully.
Not only do Cypriots smoke everywhere, including a car full of kids, they never wear seatbelts or belt up the children. Young children are frequently seen standing up between the two front seats as their (chain smoking) parents drive along the motorway while chatting on their mobile phone.
Professor Terence Stephenson, you are an arsehole.
