OHIO TRUCK DRIVERS GET “RIGHT” TO SMOKE IN VEHICLES
According to the Columbus Dispatch, Ohio truck drivers have beaten back a prohibition on smoking in commercial trucks. They won a Department of Health exemption from the “second-hand smoke” rule that henceforth bans smoking in workplaces. Now, “only truck drivers who have at least one passenger would be prohibited from smoking.” No mention was made of the impact on truck safety of smoking while driving.
