Or smoking in the car:

"BANGOR, Maine (AP) -- The Bangor City Council approved a measure
Monday that prohibits people from smoking in vehicles when children are
present.

When the law goes into effect next week, Bangor will become the first
municipality in Maine to have such a law. Similar statewide measures have
been adopted in Arkansas and Louisiana and are under consideration in
several other states."
