New study suggests brake dust from vehicles may pose a greater health risk than diesel emissions.
Recent research from the University of Southampton indicates that brake dust from modern vehicles, especially those with copper-enriched brake pads, may be more harmful to human health than diesel exhaust emissions.
This brake dust, which can cause significant lung inflammation and stress, is linked to diseases like cancer and pulmonary fibrosis.
As electric vehicles become more common, their increased weight could lead to higher particulate emissions from brakes, tires, and roads, underscoring the need for new regulations and brake pad formulations to improve public health.
