Eh,one more reason added to my book "420 reasons-Why I hate diesel cars and SUVs?":tongue:
What I know is that there is always an unbearable smell coming out of the exhaust gases of diesel cars.

Re: Diesel Exhaust cause cancer!

but still people buy diesel and ignore the long run costs.

but i don't blame the people. the government doesn't even cares to check pollution level of the filthy 100 years old trucks travelling on highway causing more and more pollution.

The same WHO agency IARC has found out that Petrol exhaust possibly causes cancer in 1989 itself and re confirmed it now along with Diesel. (see the last sentence in the news)

So both Petrol and Diesel exhausts can be a cause for cancer on long term exposure.

Mods, please change the title to include petrol also.

OMG, shocking news again. Read this topic elsewhere, couldn't recollect.
I couldn't stand for 10 minutes together in the End of line inspection area, that diesel exhaust smell is irritating. I worry how my friends stay in line for hours together.

but even had read that CNG exhausts are equally responsible for cancer.

i dont think these studies are actual researches. infact those are reverse researches where they find out a cancer patient and list all probables links causing to cancer.
