180. Good!
I've been in a car once or twice as a kid when my friend's parent/parents would smoke. Ugh it was awful. Didn't even ask me once if it was ok if they could smoke. I'm so glad my parents don't smoke.

I think they should do the same here in the UK. Ever since the smoking ban in the UK my lungs are feeling so much better as I work in a pub and sometimes am there as a customer. You wouldn't believe the amount of phlegm I used to cough up trying to clear my lungs before the ban and I would try to argue for the ban with my smoker friends and they said "If you don't like it, stay home!"

Also I remember when my sister was looking to purchase a used car as her first car, we would look in the cars and if ANY of the cars smelled like cig smoke, it wasn't suitable for purchase. One of my friends parents used to smoke in the car ALL the time and she got their car as her first car and she spent a lot of time trying to get the smell out (lots of air fresheners).

CA is in the right direction with this one.
