Cigarette cost cabbie £231 Published on Tuesday 14 June 2011 08:58 A taxi driver who was caught having a cigarette in his cab has been convicted of an offence of smoking in a smoke-free place. Lorne Scott Stevens, 33, was seen smoking inside his hackney carriage in Chesterfield town centre. North East Derbyshire and Dales Magistrates’ Court heard it is an offence for a person to smoke in a vehicle used by the public. Chesterfield Council offered Stevens, of St John’s Road, Newbold, a £50 fixed fine as an alternative to prosecution but he did not pay. He later pleaded guilty, was fined £116, and ordered to pay £100 costs plus a £15 surcharge. Source; http://www.thestar.co.uk/news/local/cig ... _1_3476245 |

They do when they can't breath any longer. The law is quite clear, yet this driver decided he knew best. |

We get loads round this way who still smoke whilst still inside their cab. There are only one or two who actually get out of their cabs to have a smoke. |
