    Even very low concentrations of ozone can be harmful to the upper respiratory tract and the lungs. The severity of injury depends on both by the concentration of ozone and the duration of exposure. Severe and permanent lung injury or death could result from even a very short-term exposure to relatively low concentrations.

    This is actually already done and present in all New York City cabs. http://www.google.com/search?q=nyc+taxi+gps
