Listening to the radio does not require that one hand be off the wheel for extended periods. Also, radios don't burn at one end (requiring immediate response - highly distracting! - should that end come into contact with something or someone).Smoking a cigarette in the car is no more distracting than fooling with the radio, CD player. And many people drive with only one hand even if not eating, smoking, drinking (regular beverages), etc in the car. Why do you deny a municipality the right to impose the laws it sees fit to impose? Because they DON'T have tohe right to take away people's freedoms. And yes it DOES concern me, as it begins with a few of these muncipalities, and it spreads like cancer (excuse the pun). It was consdiered 'outrageous" or unthinkable when California first iniciated some of the first anti-smoking laws that are now common place throughout. A city in California is one of the first to attempt to ban smoking on all streets. It begins like that. |
