Wisconsin Is Next-to-last State To Require Fire-safe Cigarettes

Wisconsin has become the next-to-last state to require so-called fire-safe cigarettes.

Gov. Jim Doyle signed the bill a year-and-a-half ago and the law took effect on Oct. 1.

Fire-safe cigarettes are designed to snuff themselves out if they’re not smoked for a certain length of time.

The idea is to prevent fires started by cigarettes that are left smoldering.

Sen. Judy Robson, D-Beloit, tried for five years to require fire-safe cigarettes, soon after New York became the first state to mandate it.

Now, every state but Wyoming has similar laws on the books although some won’t actually take effect until next year or 2011.

The National Fire Protection Association says 800 Americans die each year from fires caused by smoking cigarettes materials.

But not all smokers are crazy about the new cigarettes.

Milwaukee discount cigarettes retailer Jeff Steinbock says some of his customers complain that the new smokes don’t taste as good and they have to keep lighting them up because they go out too quickly.

Steinbock says it’s another case of blaming the product instead of people for their irresponsible behavior.
