Just for the Info of those who live and travel through NYS. This morning the Motor Smoker Law goes into effect. This law basically comes down to, if you are smoking while behind the wheel you are subject to a fine. The fines are: 1st Offense: US$500 2nd Offense: US$1000 3rd Offense: US$1500 and I don't know what the penalties are after the 3rd offense. The reasoning behind the law is the distraction of smoking while driving and the health effects of others that are in the vehicle with you. -- Jason M.
