I don't expect there are many pipe-smoking Saab drivers around. If there were, they are probably all dead. No, I take that back - the Saab would save them, but in any other car..... Smoking a pipe while driving is akin to using a mobile phone, eating or drinking while driving: all very distracting to the driver and all very dangerous, even illegal, here in Oz. And there is nothing like a bit of hot ash in your eye or a red-hot plug from the pipe in your lap to send you off the road and on the way to smokers heaven. For your own safety, I strongly suggest you keep your pipe at home!=20 --=20 Regards, Peter Wilkins
