Will this effect leisure hours raceway? And if it will, what will the smoking pit room turn into, just another pit room (overflow?)?

From what I understand is it will only be in public places (not privately owned businesses) however the new law will require every restaurant to have a designated smoking and non-smoking area, that also applies to bars, so I would think that most bars will make the whole bar smoke free, that way they wouldn't have to put up another room and bar....

maybe?

If that is the case then LHR would be fine, they have a non-smoking sectionand a smoking section.

See I think that's what it already was pretty much...They're talking a total ban, they said something about buisness owners getting a fine if they let people smoke I think it was like 250 first time, 500 second time, 1000 third and 2500 every time after that (something like that)....

I don't think the government has any business in telling business owners how to run their business.

If they want to have a smoking section and a non-smoking section, fine, if they want to have the whole place non-smoking, fine, if you can smoke in the whole place fine. If you don't like it, go to a different restaurant.

see I dont smoke cigs

....but I do drink everynight I have at leaste one...my father smokes and has a good point would u rather drive to cali with him smoking and driving or drive with me drinking and driving...how many deaths do u read about a gu drinking and smoking vs drinking and driving?..if they ban smoking in public places they should ban drinking becuase (the gov. is banning smoking for your health) so they say...so in conclussion I hate smoke as much as the non-smoker sitting next to me but think this is over the top.

Cars should be banned before smoking, if public health is really the issue.
