I'm also saying crap based on the date. I remember the outrage in Toronto bars/restaurants ~2001 when there was an attempted city wide ban. I emphasize attempted. I also recall a 2008-ish visit to Indy and you could still smoke in restaurants/bars, etc.

And as the smokers predicted, every single bar, club, and restaurant went out of business as soon as the smoking bans were enacted....




Oh, wait.



Right. All still there.

FACT.

Cigarettes were invented in 1993, and car ashtrays came the following year.

Crap

The controversy was over the introduction of car radios during the 1930s, not ashtrays. Many states wanted to ban car radios fearing that they would distract drivers and lead to accidents. SSDD! (Same shit different day)
