There is a reason why smoking is prohibited in closed spaces. Different restaurants, bars and malls have separate smoking areas or open spaces where one can smoke. The reason is simple, inhaling the smoke or second-hand smoke is harmful to the health of others, even though they aren\u2019t smoking themselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the smoke is not just harmful to humans and the environment, it can also have negative effects on objects around us. That includes your car in case you have a habit of smoking while driving. Today, we will discuss how smoking is bad for your car and why a true car lover shouldn\u2019t indulge in this practice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smoking inside your car isn\u2019t just bad for other passengers it\u2019s also bad for your car<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

According to research, smoking in the car\u2019s closed environment pollutes the interior with nicotine and other smoke pollutants. Such serious nicotine pollution makes up for third-hand exposure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you roll down the windows thinking it will ventilate your car, the negative effects still remain. The harmful pollutants get consumed by the car seats, other surfaces, car floors and the roofs even with ventilation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, these harmful elements then get on the skin of the passengers. Imagine touching a smoked in upholstery and then rubbing your hands over your eyes or skin. In addition to this, the total smoke pollutants keep lingering inside the car\u2019s interior for days, weeks or even months \u2013 and no amount of cleaning can get your vehicle back to its clean, non-polluted phase. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides, smoking in the car affects the driver\u2019s level of concentration, it can slow down their reflexes and this can have a negative effect on the person\u2019s skills. Not to mention, one hand is constantly engaged and it will be difficult to instantly manoeuvre the car in case of an emergency. Furthermore, according to the driving rules in the UAE<\/a>, distracted driving caused by eating or drinking, smoking or talking to the phone while driving can lead to four black points. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another factor to prove smoking is bad for cars is that when someone else sits in a car where someone smoked earlier they can feel it when they breathe. The nicotine alongside other smoke pollutants covers up the interior including the dashboard and the upholstery release in the air. People allergic to smoke or asthmatic people can get a bad cough just by sitting in a vehicle that has been smoked in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
