HONOLULU – Stinky city bus riders soon could get soaked.
The Honolulu City Council is considering a bill that would impose up to a $500 fine and/or up to six months in jail for public transit passengers convicted of being too smelly.

The bill will be heard Thursday in committee. It would make it illegal to have "odors that unreasonably disturb others or interfere with their use of the transit system."

It doesn't matter if it's body odor or offensive fumes that emanates from clothes, personal belongings or animals.

The American Civil Liberties Union of Hawaii says it is concerned with laws that are inherently vague, which opens the door to discriminatory enforcement based on an officer's individual prejudices.

檀香山市議會正在考慮立法對滿身臭味搭乘大眾運輸系統的人處以台幣1萬6仟元的罰鍰，嚴重者甚至要吃上半年的窂飯。

本法案會禁止”身上帶有不尋常擾人味道”的人使用大眾運輸系統。美國公民自由聯盟對此表示關切，表示這樣的法案本質上含糊，可能會造成執法人員在執法時個人偏好有所偏頗。

有意思的法案

不過要怎麼執行還是問題。什麼樣的味道才算是臭味？能用機器量化嗎？腸胃不好有口臭、狐臭、剛抽完煙、剛吃完臭頭腐、剛喝了酒要怎麼界定

能想的臭味還真不少，不過台北ＭＲＴ的車廂通風在人少時還ＯＫ，異味不大是問題，倒是我不喜歡站在混身煙味或汗味的人旁
