I think we should fine drivers who keep their cars running
idle for a long period (A midday break to benefit everyone, June 19).
Very often we get to see expensive cars with their engines
on, without a driver inside and probably locked from the outside using a spare
key.
The sight is common in front of major offices and shopping
areas. This is a waste of valuable energy and may present a danger during the
hot summer.
People ignore advice on this issue, just to avoid a few
minutes of sitting inside a hot car - something they could easily overcome by
driving for a few minutes with open windows.
I think the authorities should ensure that Mawaqif
inspectors fine drivers those who do this.
