Nicely played. Answer a rational response with an inflammatory caption and pic. Guess you conceded the point!

So I can't smoke while driving with a kid in the car, but releasing radon or any other harmful gas in a car while driving with a child is still legal, right?

No, just irresponsible

You're not referring to the aftereffects of consuming too many extra spicy bean burritos after visiting the Taco Bell drive-thru, are you?

If it goes over like the smoke ban here in new york - it'll be ridiculously popular in the end.

Ten year old joke in SF.
A German Businessman is touring the financial district with his hosts and remarks "you have the best dressed and looking prostitutes!"
He of course was referring to the ladies of the office forced outside for a smoke.

[quote Anthony]Hmmm...
Something about protecting the health of a child who can do nothing about the situation because he/she is under legal custody of someone who doesn't get that secondhand smoke is dangerous and harmful...
Sounds pretty rational to me.
I'm with you. Or let the child sue the parents when they hit 18. That's fair as well.

Is it illegal in California to fart in a car if there's a child in it?

As long as you have a valid sticker

"A lovely new law in California that bans smoking in your own car."
IF THERE IS A CHILD IN IT.
