In my car

Fresh Start is the Welsh Assembly Government's health promotion campaign designed to reduce smoking in cars where children are present. Last year the BMA recommended legislating on the matter, although was shouted down by the press for overstating levels of risk. A study in Tobacco Control attempts to measure children's exposure to secondhand smoke during a typical car journey. The tendency for smoking cessation interventions to target parents via their children is put under the microscope in a meta-analysis and systematic review.
