Heavy-smoking West Virginia becomes the 12th state to ban lighting up in cars with kids present

West Virginia has become the 12th state to ban smoking in vehicles with children present. Republican Gov. Jim Justice signed a bill Friday that would fine violators up to $25, but only if a vehicle is pulled over for another offense. Smoking with children present cannot be the main reason a driver is stopped. West Virginia has the nation's highest rate of adult cigarette use at about 22%. The bill's sponsor is state Sen. Tom Takubo. He is a lung doctor. Takubo has said he made a promise long ago to a patient whose father was a heavy smoker that he would try to get such legislation passed.
