Imagine the average Lagosian, working hard hours, stressed and then spending 5 hours daily on the road breathing in toxic fumes.
You wonder why we don't live as long as our ancestors as many people claim.

What should you do?
In this case, it's not just you alone, reducing the amount of cars on the road will help.
You don't have to take the car everywhere if you can walk to that place, if you're standing at a crowded junction, use a face mask.
Don't exercise in polluted areas

If you are in a traffic jam, and use the AC, use the option of recycling the air inside till you're in the clear.
This might help reduce the amount of toxic fumes you are being exposed to.

Addition:
If you’re stuck in traffic longer than 15 minutes, I suggest you turn off the circulation for sometime.
Leaving it on for too long can increase the carbon dioxide in the car and lead to drowsiness and poor decisions.
