New vaping laws to extend to new outdoor spaces in South Australia

The new vaping laws in South Australia will extend to popular outdoor spaces such as parks, beaches, and shopping centers. This means that smoking and vaping will be prohibited in these areas from tomorrow. Violators of this law will face fines.

The ban on smoking and vaping in outdoor spaces is part of the state's efforts to reduce secondhand smoke exposure and promote healthy living. The new laws are intended to protect public health by reducing the amount of harmful chemicals that people are exposed to when they are near smokers or vapers.

Under the new laws, smoking and vaping will be prohibited in all enclosed spaces, including restaurants, bars, and other indoor areas. In addition, smoking and vaping will also be banned on public transport, including buses, trains, and trams.

The fines for violating these laws will vary depending on the severity of the offense. For example, a person who is caught smoking or vaping in a prohibited area may be fined $160 if it is their first offense. If they are caught again within 12 months, they may be fined $320.

The new laws are intended to help reduce the number of people who smoke and vape, and to promote healthy living in South Australia. By banning smoking and vaping in popular outdoor spaces, the state is taking a proactive approach to protecting public health and reducing the amount of harmful chemicals that people are exposed to.
