BDifficulty 3/5

If you have a pollen allergy and pollen is present outside, should you drive with the windows open?

Correct answer

No.

No, keep them closed to reduce pollen entry and use ventilation with an appropriate, maintained filter. A filter does not stop pollen entering an open window or guarantee removal of every allergen. If symptoms or medication impair you, do not drive and seek advice; this recommendation concerns pollen exposure, not every respiratory allergy in all situations.
