Using your car’s aircon can land you with a £80 on-the-spot fine, warns RAC

As the UK experiences scorching temperatures, the RAC is cautioning drivers against using their car’s air conditioning, warning that it could result in an £80 on-the-spot fine. The RAC highlights that this measure is part of efforts to reduce carbon emissions and protect the environment. With temperatures expected to soar to 40C, many might be tempted to use their car’s AC for relief, but this warning serves as a reminder of the broader environmental implications of such actions. The fines are a stark reminder of the need to balance personal comfort with environmental responsibility.
