I'm not going to say that breathing cigarette fumes for two seconds while walking past a smoker will kill you. Of course it won't. If you're sensitive to it or allergic it might trigger coughing, but for most ordinary people it probably won't be anything other than unpleasant.
The main reason I like the smoking ban was that I hated the secondhand smoke that hung in the air at pubs and clubs where I was gigging. If they had just installed proper ventilation I would have had less of a problem with it. I think many smokers don't realise how much many non-smokers dislike the smell of cigarette smoke. And the fact that the smell sticks to your clothes and hair and stays with you until you wash them.
