This summer, several auto drivers in our network reported extreme heat discomfort inside vehicles, especially during peak afternoon hours. A few drivers even experienced dizziness and fainting while waiting inside autos under direct sunlight.
One common factor is the black roof, which absorbs heat and raises cabin temperature significantly.
While this may be due to existing norms or legacy practices, can @TransportDeptTN @TNRoadsDept consider allowing lighter or heat-reflective roof options?
Even small changes (white or reflective materials) can improve comfort for both drivers and passengers and reduce heat stress. Request some action from the respective leaders.
