You've never driven in a humid tunnel, or live in a place with changing weather do you?

Oh I do, we have almost 200 days of precipitation yearly, and temperatures fluctuating wildly between days all seasons of the year.

Some tunnels where I live explicitly instruct you to adjust your AC before entering.

I'm allowed to adjust anything within arms reach as long as I keep my eyes on the road. It is my responsibility to familiarize myself with the controls before departing so I can do so.
