Starting July 1, 2014 a new Vermont law will be in place to protect children in car seats from secondhand smoke. Act 135 bans smoking in motor vehicles when occupied by children in a child passenger restraining system such as a car seat or booster seat. This is a primary offense and punishable by up to a $100 fine.
The Vermont Department of Health advises that public awareness is vital to the law’s success: Our goal is not to fine and ticket but to change the acceptability of smoking around children and protect those who cannot protect themselves.
Children are especially vulnerable to secondhand smoke, which causes respiratory illnesses, ear infections, and lasting damage to a young child’s developing organs and immune systems.
If you have any questions about Act 135 please contact the Vermont Tobacco Control program at tobaccovt@state.vt.us or 1-866-331-5622.
