DELHI A city court has banned smoking while
driving in India's capital in what is believed
to be the first measure of its kind in any major
city worldwide. Declaring New Delhi roads
dangerous to human life, the city's High Court
imposed new measures aimed at deterring
habitually bad drivers. The prohibitions include
a smoking ban as well as using cell phones while
behind the wheel.
