Summer is coming and with it the time to open the windows. This way of cooling the interior of the vehicle, useful at low speeds and for detractors of air conditioning, can also pose some dangers that we don't always consider. It is possible that there is some bug in the car in full gear, something that has happened to everyone and can be the cause of an accident if we do not follow these steps. Wasps, bees, horseflies and other insects can completely distract our attention from driving when we sneak into a vehicle. Even more so when you are allergic to any of them. Even if the first reaction (almost instinctive) is to move away or move your hands to try to get out, in this situation you have to show your nerves of steel and try to stay calm.

Let's start by reviewing the simplest situation, that of finding an insect in the car shortly before leaving, with the vehicle stationary. There the repercussions are minimal and it would be enough to open windows and doors to try to get him out. Putting on air conditioning might also help. In spring and summer it is better to check the vehicle beforehand to avoid risks. And now we return to the most feared situation, that is, that the insect in question sneaks into the car while driving. This is where we must try to act calmly, because making sudden gestures or movements will only "piss off" the child and increase the risk of having an accident. If you are traveling with someone who serves as a co-pilot, that person is responsible for facilitating the animal's departure from the vehicle. However, if you drive alone, you should try opening all the windows, reduce your speed (as much as possible) and turn on the air conditioning. If following these instructions the wasp or bee (or mantis as in the previous photo) does not leave the vehicle, the best option is to try to stop in a safe area. With the car stopped we can have control of the situation and let the insect go away without consequences. These same steps are the ones you need to follow in case the insect bites you. If you take a bite despite remaining calm, the best thing to do is stop the car to get out and assess the damage. Double reason if you are allergic to bites, as medical intervention may be necessary. In any case, remember that taking your hands off the wheel and getting distracted could cause a serious accident. And in that case, obviously, the remedy would be worse than the disease.
