No Smoking in rental cars.......how do they check?

Most the rental companies have a no smoking policy now and charge stupid amounts if u smoke.

 

So how do they prove if you have smoked inside the car?

 

Apart from the obvious like smell/ash etc which can be cleaned and smell removed before returning car.

 

Is there some sort of machine to test if a car has been smoked in?

 

I mean a smoker will smell of smoke all the time and getting in and out the car will also transfer the smell from clothes onto cloth interior over time, so how do they prove that the smoking took place inside the car?

i dont know. but as a non smoker i can tell when someone has smoked in a car. even if its not my car. its quite obvious to me.

 

i agree, as someone who has never smoked i can smell it straight away, even if its been masked by air freshener ;) so dont be selfish and keep your cancer stick until you get out of the car :p

Don't worry mate, most of the rental cars are nearly brand new so have the fresh car smell to them. They don't want you to smoke in case you leave it smelly & leave holes in the seat etc. Just make sure you have the window open fully when you have your fag & have no ash in the car. If you really want, a vanilla magic hides the smell well!
