Hi,
So I drive a tour bus at the moment, for a cruise ship excursion company. After the bus tour, the people get on a Unimog (the picture above) to go up the rest of the mountain. Well, I don't get to sit down in the Unimog. I stand up on the back platform (holding onto the frame), where I'm frequently inhaling the diesel exhaust, which has me a little concerned. I've done some reading on it, but nothing seems conclusive. This is a seasonal gig, and I've got about three more months, and I'm exposed to this exhaust a couple times a day, 5 days a week, at about 10-15 minute segments. I'll be upgrading to a CDL A later this year.
I was curious if anyone has any experience with diesel exhaust exposure that lead to problems?

It smells bad and you cough a lot....then you take the truck into the shop and get the leaks fixed.....
repeat as needed!
If you look around...it is easy to find some article somewhere that say breathing causes cancer, eating causes gum disease, gum disease makes your teeth fall out...then the babe in the bikini won't even say Howdy....
It's all good...no worries!
