well sex can = babies so in theory your allowed to become a parent at 16, but not be old enough to decide wether you want to start smoking or not.
at 17 your concidered old enough to wield a machine on the road which if not properly wielded could take a life, probably yours, but your still not old enough to decide wether you want to smoke or not.
the law will concider you old enough to make that sort of decision over your life, but not concider you old enough to make the tobacco decision over your life..
basically the age laws in the UK make no damned sense.
