[Legal regulations knowledge among active and passive smokers].

In the recent years smoking problem is more visible in Europe as well as in Poland. European countries tried to limit smoking in different ways including suitable legal regulations. There came international legal documents. Besides of that some countries implemented solutions to protect passive smokers. Also in Poland there are legal acts protecting non-smokers from passive smoking. Those provide protection from nicotine smog in sufficient way but those are often ignored. More effort should be put in the implementation of existing acts. The main research objective of this document was to show the actual legal regulations knowledge about smoking and selling tobacco by active as passive smokers and their opinion on smoking prohibition in public places.
