The polution entering the air by cars and motorcycles in such disgraceful condition is bringing premature death to thousands of Dominicans. When anyone is unfortunate enough to drive behind an old relic or junk car, or motorcycle spewing polutants into the air and into autos following behind the offending car, the human pulmonary system is irreparably damaged. The violating vehicles that must be removed from the roads are also a danger with faulty brakeing systems and worn out tires. Compound these polutants we inhale together with those foolish enough to smoke cigarettes and blow the smoke into our faces the result is premature deaths due to lung cancer emphasema, and heart attacks. Laws now existing could correct these inadequacies, but stricter laws with real panalties must be enacted and truly enforced. Protect yourselves, and more importantly give our children a chance to live longer and free from painful diseases such as cancer, emphasema and heart disease.
