摘要
We present the preliminary results of a 7-week program to monitor the levels and time integral exposure of carbon monoxide experienced by drivers in Nottingham U.K. The results show that the levels are within the World Health Organisation's guidelines for 1 h exposure. The relationship between vehicle speed and carbon monoxide concentration is also investigated and is found to be not significant. Copyright (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
