^^^ they should only be smoking in a designated smoke area at work

And even some just smoke in the door way so that non smokers have to walk through it, or near open windows so that it comes into the building.
80% of your posts are total tripe, as they are mostly replies to sh1te posts created by the morons that, unfortunately this forum attracts.

On the news this morning they mentioned that Cameron had said he would be nervous at imposing such a ban, so it has at least to some small degree been mentioned in government, perhaps not officially. 

I doubt it would have much effect on me either way as I'm a none smoker.  Personally I'd like to see smoking banned whilst driving, but more so in public places such as streets.  I actually hate people smoking in streets more as it gets in your face and makes you stink.  At least in their cars they're just stinking themselves up.

Got bored after page 3 and I don't smoke but nobody can smoke in either the courtesy cars or my own personal vehicle as sometimes it is lended out as a courtesy car if needed.

The best thing I've ever seen is a bloke with a fag in his right hand out the window, whilst he held his phone with his left hand to his right ear steering with his left elbow.
He was in a work van too.

Well since we have a bout a million automatic Micra customers it fits right in and no one's ever complained.  :grin:

Either that or new manual Fiestas.

i like the smoker who doesnt see a problem with littering the roads with his fag butts. im sure all the peoples cars who have caught fire because its sucked up a fag end agaisnt a paper filter with a massive amount of fresh air rushing past it would probably have something to say,
