With the peak pollen season upon us, a study has shown that hay fever can have serious implications on road safety. Over half a million motorists admitted that they have lost control of their vehicle because of sneezing, and 2.6 million have looked away from the road while they searched for a tissue. One million motorists have had to pull over to the roadside until a bout of sneezing has stopped. A car's air conditioning system can provide a vital defence against pollen. However, to be effective, the system needs to be serviced regularly and have the pollen filter changed at least once a year, or even more frequently if the car is often parked under trees. |
