Carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons were sampled at operator's nose height inside vehicles moving in moderate to heavy traffic in six cities; samples were integrated over 20 to 30 min by collection in Mylar bags; carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons were analyzed by infrared and flame ionization, respectively, with instruments at Continuous Air Monitoring Program station in each city; detector tubes for carbon monoxide were also used to determine 5-min concentrations at suspected high points in field; estimates of traffic density were made; three types of traffic arteries were considered.
