If thats the logic you use to defend smoking in your own mind, so be it. Instead of trying to compare life's dangers to justify smoking, why not just eliminate as many as possible. Since its impossible to completely eliminate driving, be as careful as possible. Smoking, however, is something you can eliminate entirely.
Smoking is a sick habit and I've just never understood why people give in to it knowing the potential consequences. I've always viewed smokers as weak people, they knowingly are destroying their bodies yet are unable to alter their behavior. Also, to those who think its ok to just smoke sparingly, there was a recent long term study that concluded even smoking 5 cigs a day could reduce your life expectency by up to 10 years.
