Your Vehicle Scent Can Keep You Safer

Here's an important travel tip that we bet you didn't know, and, it might keep you safer:

The average commuter spends two and a half hours daily in their car and nearly 100,000 auto accidents yearly are caused by drivers who fall asleep at the wheel.

Aggressive driving is a huge traffic safety concern. So what does this have to do with how your car smells? Well, which car scent did you think makes drivers more alert?

(A) Strawberry
(B) New Car
(C ) Pine
(D) Warm Vanilla Breeze

It's PINE. Drivers are more alert and have less fatigue with pine scent in the car. And, drivers were less angry with overall improved driving performance with strawberry and pine scents. And you thought they just smelled nice.
