Once hitched a ride and the driver and his wife where heavy smokers that they even had the air on recycle instead of taking in fresh air. 2nd worst ride ever, I got out as quick as I could.
what was the 1st worst?
I got a ride from a courier who was driving as if the van was on fire. He looked at his watch and said "lunch time!". Then he held the steering wheel with his knee, and grabbed a 'Hoegaarden Wit" (beer) from behind his chair. Opened it with the bottom of his lighter and drank the whole bottle in one go. Did not blink an eye, grabbed another from behind the chair and repeated the process. Then only said "So !" and acted like it was perfectly normal. I jumped out when he halted at a traffic light. Looked back but It was an un-marked white van otherwise i'd happily reported him to police and his boss.
My mother was a heavy smoker and slight of build, in the winter she'd crack the window 1/4 inch and not any further until i was steadily coughing.
Jet's are different than cars though, they cycle air/heat from the engines at pretty high speed. The cabin air is continually refreshed/pressurized.
