Emissions due to accumulate in the air near the traffic lights.
In this connection, the doctors advised drivers while in traffic jams close the windows and turn off fans. You can also enable auto fans in the recirculated air mode in order not to draw outside air pollution. The researchers found that the highest danger level is set at a time when traffic drivers close the windows and the air is drawn from outside by a fan.
According to experts, the setting of the ventilation system will contribute to reduce the impact toxic fumes on the occupants in the car, at 76%.

In Europe, this problem is also widespread, are dying from polluted air ahead of time 400 thousand people per year.
