Or even worse splatters of chew spit all over the place…yuk.

15. “Smoking” means inhaling, exhaling, burning, carrying, or possessing any combusting
(heated, lit, or smoldering) tobacco or any other substance, whether contained in a cigar,
cigarette, or pipe, or any other object. Smoking does not include possession of an unlit or
unheated cigar, cigarette, or pipe. Smoking does not include use of an e-cigarette which creates
only a vapor without any smoke.

18. “Tobacco and Tobacco Products” means tobaccos, cigarettes, cigars, pipes, tobacco pipe tobaccos, humidors, cigar cutters, pipe cleaners, pipe maintenance tools, and literature primarily for tobacco enthusiasts.

I’m looking for a link to the actual ordinance that would, of course, have a legal definition of “smoking” in it’s preamble. In all the discussions of this new law I’ve never seen the actual ordinance or the definition of smoking. You could say I’m looking for the smoking gun

They are always talking on their cell phones…

I’ve never seen an actual link to the law. My specialty is smoked Boston pork shoulders for pulled pork sandwiches you would gladly die young from eating too many of.

EDITOR NOTE–The link to Boise PD policy at the bottom of the story has EVERYTHING you could possible want to know.

Can you tell us what the policy is for the Boise Police Department and other agencies of the City for smoking in city-owned vehicles?

I would hope that no one is made to suffer from second-hand smoke or the residual tobacco/nicotine odor when enjoying a ride in a city owned vehicle.
