"It's utter rubbish and the biggest waste of money. People still do not wear seat belts, people still use mobile phones, people still put kids in cars without child seats and overload passengers. People still drink and drive. We have a little police force, under resourced that simply can not keep up with real crime nor all the over 'law breakers' driving around now. So the police force is supposed to get involved in parents travelling with children, that are smoking. Say all parents now stop desperate for a fag, who is going to clean up after all the accidents of the cars trying to get back onto the carriageway? How does making someone already stressed and wanting a cig, being made to wait until arrival for a cig, help? Are they encouring parents to speed? Or encouraging more stressed drivers onto the road. We've got children in this country living in real poverty, children in this country that have real difficulties with abuse and other problems; but the gov thinks banning parents smoking in cars is worth hours of discussion at the high levels What a waste of tax payers money #her#" I don't consider protecting children's health and well being a waste of money... | |||

Not one mention of a child's health and them NOT having a choice when it comes to inhaling your smoke. Kill yourself with your nicotine but don't force it on little ones. | |||

I can honestly not believe how selfish some smokers are when it comes to the health of others, especially children. It's sad that legislation of this type is necessary because one would hope that adults would automatically do the right thing and protect the health of children. As far as I am concerned, forcing smoke onto children is abuse. It's harmful, just as hitting them or emotionally abusing them is. I'm sure that _iew won't be popular with smokers, what with their "right" to smoke. How about a child's (and everyone else's) right to choose not to breathe smoke? | |||

That worse things happen is not a reason not to do something to protect children from harm. Especially when people could manage this themselves, with no money at all being spent, if some of them weren't so utterly selfish. | |||

It should be common sense to not smoke in a car with a kid in it. It should be common sense not to smoke at all.... But we know, personal choices and all that." Maybe it is common sense not to start smoking at all but the same could be said for lots of things that people still do or try.... Yes I am a smoker but I agree that smoking in cars with children present is a no no. Just not sure how well it can be policed, using a mobile phone is illegal yet I constantly see people fiddling or chatting on them while driving. | |||

Smoking should be banned around children full stop!!!" I never let my children see me smoking i certainly dont want them following my example. | |||

"I wont repost as it's getting stupidly long. Yes I do have some insider knowledge of the local police force 'budget considerations' and also of their targets. He has listed us as smokers, how ever we only smoke socially. Years ago the best times were always found in smokers areas of clubs and many of our friends smoke. Neither of us smoke in cars, neither of us smoke at home or daily. I do visit my local hospital 4 times a month and do you think it's smokefree? Absolutely not. Do you think drink driving is just an accident? Or is it someone being selfish and having a few too many drinks then 'needing to drive themselves somewhere' Do you think child abuse is just something we should accept? The pot of money that we have paid into for years and years is wasted bit by bit. And the hundreds of thousands wasted by discussing smoking in cars and the unrealistic expectation that our police force will be able to actually enforce it So really. If I have a voice as to what is discussed in parliament, given what our children are suffering with... Media coverage was great following baby p, do you have any idea how many children suffer in silence? How many children come to school with a bruise because their mum or dad had a fag in the car? How many children dont attend school because their mum or dad had a fag in the car? The money wasted by this one discussion would have boosted Birmingham city councils social service department funding by 35% (already) over a 5 year period. By the time this is past and comes into force the amount of cash wasted on it could have helped thousands of children with bigger concerns than whether mum or dad had a cig in the car. Some of our families in need, cant even afford cars " Your "insider knowledge" is not evidence. The issue here isn't drink driving or child abuse so I refuse to be drawn into a discussion on what is worst. ALL harm to children is unacceptable and ALL children should be protected. The money and time being spent on this would be available for other things if some smokers weren't so selfish, so go campaign to them. It might do some good, whereas ranting here that it's a waste of money and unenforceable won't. Children being harmed by smoke should not be ignored because there are greater evils in the world. | |||

A "right" to use a known carcinogenic substance even around people who don't want to breathe it or smell it? Bollocks. | |||

"Children are the most precious thing in the world why would anyone want to harm them in any way especially smoking in an enclosed space. Common sense not to smoke near young children " its also common sense that kids are strapped in but thats still not sunk in for some, same as many other aspects of safety a lot of them dont think 'it' will happen to them .. | |||

No such thing as a social smoker its a con made up by in denial smokers. Jeeze if you smoke a cig you are a smoker. | |||

"I fully agree with this for the sake of the kids. But the police will be stopping everyone with a cigarette in their mouths, so for those that don't have kids will be stopped. And you can't always see little kids in the back. Her " if there is a child in the car dont blame police for doong job blame parent. | |||

"With it looking likely that smoking in cars carrying children looking like it will be banned what happens with convertibles with the roof down other than the cigarette getti g extinguished in weather like this? Where does the car end?" It will be one rule for all cars Im sure soft top or not. In reality though most parents don't smoke in the car if kids are there anyway. | |||
