Driving home yesterday. As I’m driving across a junction round the corner from my house a dude in a people carrier rolls past, two kids in the back (not buckled in) fag in one hand, lighter in the other. All windows closed. I think, ‘surely not’ but stop, wind down my window and motion for him to do the same. I ask if he is planning to spark the fag. He replies, yes. I explain it’s against the law. He seems genuinely surprised and tells me he didn’t know that. I state that he must know second hand smoke isn’t bad for his kids right? He again seems to not be aware of this. I firmly suggest he waits until he is out the car before sparking up. I didnt take his plate, my mind was spinning and traffic around us was irate at the hold up. I just couldn’t believe someone was doing that, to there own fucking kids!! *
Jesus.
It must take you forever to get anything done stopping all the while to reprimand people who don't align with your expectations of human behaviour.
