Here the rules here varies from town to town here. Some have no public smoking, others have it so you can't smoke in restaurants that have kids. This puts the responsibility on the restaurant to decide to accept smoking customers, or customers with kids. So it is more of a ban kids rule than smoking. Some have it so you can't smoke near bus stops, others in the bus booths, but if the wind is smoke is blowing the wrong way you still get it in the booths. Since almost all smoking rules are municipal it can get very complex all of a sudden you end up getting a couple $100 fine and you are not quite sure what you did because you found yourself in the wrong town.
