Bill Summary
MOTOR VEHICLES -- Adds to existing law to prohibit smoking or vaping in a motor vehicle if a minor is present.
AI Summary
This bill adds a new section to existing Idaho law to prohibit smoking or vaping (the use of electronic cigarettes or similar devices) in a motor vehicle if a minor under the age of 18 is present. Enforcement of this law can only be done as a secondary action when the driver has been pulled over for another suspected violation. The penalty for a violation is a $50 fine, and a conviction will not result in violation points or be considered a moving traffic violation for insurance purposes. The key terms "smoke" and "vape" are defined in the bill.
