I just like the idea that they are calling for smoking to be banned in the car while barely acknowledging the fact that people are not only breathing in the smoke inside the car, but also breathing in all sorts of potentially dangerous pollution that's coming from both the car you are in, and all the other cars around it.

To totally mangle an old expression, it seems a little like fixing the barn door not only after your horse has bolted, but while the rest of the herd are bolting through the hole in the barn wall you are ignoring.
