Abstract

The physical phenomenon of smog formation from burning peat bogs and its persistent air pollution on the highway is investigated. It is shown that particulate smog particles of small sizes PM10 and PM2.5 are capable, as on condensation nuclei, of creating optically dense aerosol fogs and, thereby, reducing the visibility range on the roadway to 50 meters or less, significantly increasing the risk of traffic accidents. It is proved that, together with carbon monoxide CO, smog saturates the air with pollutants to dangerous concentrations that can significantly weaken the reflex reactions of drivers to changing traffic conditions. In combination, this leads to an emergency situation, accompanied by a transport collapse, requiring the involvement of forces and means of emergency response.
