Smoking with your kids in the car?

[amirzed]

Last weekend I was driving home and stopped at some traffic lights, next to a medium size MPV, one of them Focus C Max's. It had a funny baby on board type tag in the window and it looked like the driver was sat on their own at the front with another lady sat directly behind her.

In my sidewards glance I could see that there was a baby seat to the left of the lady in the back and the lady in the back was smoking! She'd opened her window up an inch or so but the baby seat looked like one of them upto 18 months.

I was quite taken aback by this and pretty horrified.

Now to be fair I saw the seat but i couldn't see whether there was a baby in it, but given the lady sat in the back i think there may have been..

Is this normal or am i over reacting?

"Was this any of your business?" would be another question...

thats a very fair point

I look forward to you making this point on all threads concering any point of motoring or opinion where the subject in question is none of the posters business

I agree its unacceptable. But theres nothing you can do, and as said, its none of your business.

I wasn't saying it was any of my business, I was simply very surprised.

well why make the point that it isn't then?
