Smoking in Cars with Kids
March 31st, 2015 by Mike VasilindaPeople who smoke in their cars with kids under 13 could be stopped by police under legislation approved five to one in a state Senate Health Policy Committee today. The fine for non moving violations ranges from $116 to $129 dollars. Sen. Arthenia Joyner of Tamp[a says the legislation is appropriate because kids in the back seat don’t have a choice.
“We should not allow them to expose children to the possibility of years of health failings.”
If approved, the legislation would take effect October first.
