My children were deprived of the right to burn themselves from a mixture of childhood curiosity and piromania

Im too poor to have this issue. Didn't even know new cars don't have them anymore lol
Smoking while driving is illegal in many (not enough) countries so it makes a lot of sense that they would be removed.
Very common in my country :3
I wish it was banned everywhere. If you wanna kill yourself with cigarettes then do it the normal slow way with cancer, but dont endanger other people by being distracted while driving.
That’s as unamerican as trying to ban masturbation while driving.
Here a prime example for unamerican (german) driving restrictions: https://www.thedailyjagran.com/world/germany-couple-car-sex-drive-sparks-traffic-chaos-nearly-ends-in-tragedy-on-autobahn-highway-10278589
(a couple had sex while the guy was triving ~140km/h. The guy may get up to 5 years in prison, carges for the woman unclear)
Imo they should just ban smoking in public in general, I hate choking on someone's cancer fumes while going down to the store or whatever
Yeah basically disallow smoking in all places where people gather. Bars, outdoor restaurants, sports events, etc.
You must never have smoked. There's nothing distracting about smoking... But the unfulfilled addiction, if banned, could lead to some nice road rage videos.
They were almost completely phased out almost 25 years ago.
What are you driving?
The 12v receptacles are still around, and you can buy the lighters, it is an option still really
Oh, I know, and thank goodness, too. Otherwise, I would not have been able to power, my iPod, and eventually, my iPhone, through the 00s
But I did notice that even the 12 V receptacles were phased out for a couple of years until they were brought back by popular demand because people are needing to power devices like phone chargers, and what not.
Well I know that at least a 2003 volvo s60 and a 2014 bmw f30 have had them :3.. or the ones I've been in did anyway lol
My 2008 still has one. As far as I can tell it's never been used, and the ash tray is pristine and unused, but it's got one.
Fuck, this was my first burn in my entire life when I was 4.
Mine was cleaning up sparklers and not realizing it mattered which end you picked up.
In retrospect we're all like "how could you make such a mistake", but I guess ya gotta start somewhere.
Apparently that "somewhere" happens to smell like crispy flesh. Who knew?
I burnt a hole in my grandmas passenger seat and got grounded for a week while I cleaned the whole interior
I agree. I miss my thumbnails. Gotta go, I'm smoking Winstons in my Pontiac.
I removed mine and added a usb /usb-c plug. Its not like I was using it for anything else.
It's back, just pay the heated thingy subscription to unlock it
I went to school with a kid who had burn scars from those things on the back of both of his hands
Are you smoking yet ?
y'all got burned with those? first time I played with it I noticed it was bright hot and obviously didn't touch it!!!
how many of you didn't notice its bright hot!!!
I mean I knew it was hot, but surely it would be fine to touch just a little? ..no, it was not. First and last time I've heard my flesh shizzle
Some kids were just too dumb to notice it or thought it was probably some kind of light.
