Research: The Dangers Of Second-Hand Smoke

In Cars With Children

According to Science Daily January 10, 2011, “While the evidence is incomplete, there is enough available to support legislation against letting people smoke in cars with children,” states an article in CMAJ (Canadian Medical Association Journal).

The article goes on to say that even though second-hand smoke was not shown to be 23 times more dangerous as some had claimed – “It can still be very harmful to children.”

Furthermore, “The authors conclude that there is enough evidence to make a valid decision to legislate against smoking in cars with children.”
