torturedsole Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 I lived in a SE London tower block in my youth and one night saw what happens when someone decides to end it all. Very messy and something that I've never forgotten about (early 90s). RIP. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This time of year, laying back with the engine and AC running is sorely tempting.. see it in the car park at Big-CX. One might not be feeling well and exhausted after being busy prior.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonlover Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Many drivers here have the ventilation system set, permanently to 'recycle'. Without forward movement of the vehicle to bring in some fresh air, it is quite conceivable that there can be a dangerous buildup of CO2 and a lack of oxygen inside the cab. This has been reported on the forum previously when two ladies were found dead in their car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I'd say far less likely. That could only occur if a. the exhaust system was faulty and b. the ventilation system was set to 'fresh' rather than 'recycle'. Very little air enters the cab from the environment when it's set to 'recycle'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar happened to my Wife’s cousin... He was found dead in his car at the side of the road. He'd clearly felt unwell, pulled the car to side of the road, he was having a heart-attack. In this case, the most obvious guess is something similar - that said, I’m guessing the investigation into the case will be furthered with an autopsy... But, as usually to nearly every single story posted here, we’ll never know as there is never any follow-up. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no detail in the OP so we are speculating. My suggestion, based on reports of similar incidents over decades is that CO axphixiation rather than CO2 suffocation could be the cause. Presumably an autopsy will reveal the cause of death be it internal or external. As to accidental or self-imposed that is another matter. Perhaps they should ask the woman who reported the incident. She determined he had 'passed away' simply by looking into the vehicle.???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
