“Even if you have done good deeds in your life and don’t have to be fryed in oil after death, you must have taken a stinky car before you died...” Have you ever held your breath in an online car-hailing vehicle, or silently prayed in an elevator, “Open the door quickly”? Where does the “stinky smell” in the car come from? Why can’t the driver of a “stinky car” smell anything?

The odor of a "stinky car" mainly comes from three aspects: ① Pollution of materials in the car : New cars and cars that have been exposed to the sun are more serious. ② Human factors : smoking and eating in the car, odor from inferior car accessories, and bacteria adsorbed by plush toys. ③ Exhaust pollution : The temperature of the vehicle rises when it is driving, and gasoline seeps back into the car.

In addition to some smells in the environment, the driver's "work smell" may be the source of the odor.

The time for cleaning (whether cleaning themselves or the inside of the car) is squeezed out by work , resulting in a decline in the hygiene of some online ride-hailing drivers, with odors such as head odor, bad breath odor, foot odor, sweat odor, etc. appearing, which are difficult to ignore.

In addition, under high pressure and exhausting work pressure, people will also emit "fatigue odor. " "Fatigue odor" refers to the body odor emitted after working for a long time or doing physical labor.

Driving is an activity that requires a high level of concentration. It requires the brain to be constantly alert to stay awake and responsive. During this process, the brain prompts the sebaceous glands to actively secrete oil, which covers the surface of the skin and may produce an unpleasant odor after a period of fermentation. In addition, when the body is in a state of fatigue for a long time, the liver's ability to decompose ammonia decreases, and the ammonia that is not completely decomposed will be excreted from the body with sweat, producing a unique "fatigue odor."

Why can passengers smell the odor in the car, but the driver can't? Doctors say this is because the driver may have become tolerant to the odor after being exposed to it for a long time, or because everyone's sense of smell is different. The ancients said: If you go into an abalone shop for a long time, you won't smell the stench anymore. This is what they meant.

So will "smelly cars" have an impact on the health of drivers and passengers? In fact, odors will not affect the health of ordinary people, but people with allergies need to pay more attention~
