What is the danger of smoking in a car besides danger to secondhand smoke for passengers?

What are the other danger of smoking in a car, open or closed windows? (Besides the exposure to secondhand smoke for passengers) Does smoking a plain cigarette in your car make it worse?

Best Answer: I'm goign to have to say yes because there is little to no oxgen for your passengers or you for that matter. There is also a thing called third hand smoke this is where all the smoke residue gets on your clothes seats carpet you name it. Now think of this not only when your smoking it causes second hand but if your not they are still getting this nicotine residue just from touching the inside of the car they can become very sick if it becomes ingested if they don't wash their hands. My suggestion save your life put out the ciggarette your not only killing yourself your killing your friends.

    If second hand smoke was as dangerous as people believe it is, there would be nobody alive in their 50s and 60s.
