Montpelier, Vt.
-- Vermont lawmakers have approved a bill that aims to protect animals and children from ingesting antifreeze.
House Bill 6 was introduced Jan. 8 and signed by the governor May 12. It requires that any antifreeze, appealing to animals and children because of its sweetness, sold in the state contain a bittering agent to act as a deterrent to ingestion.
The bill went into effect immediately and relieves antifreeze manufacturers from any liability should antifreeze still be ingested.
