I’m staying away from Bennett close near Crawley.

The worst place in the uk.

Maybe one if the residents has a DPF delete ?

I wouldn't accept the efficacy of legal requirements for air quality.

An investigation in Germany showed bad location of sensors (eg, next to a busy traffic light crossroads) recorded "illegal" levels of nitrogen dioxide, while readings taken in the kichen of a flat, cooking on gas, at the same location to be 40 times over the limit.

We're being played by the green movement.

Ok, thanks for the advice.

Do you know how the EU legal limit was set? If not, check it out, you might be surprised.
