Description: A man comes to his car wearing boxing gloves. His wife tells him that his gloves are supposed to be for UV rays, not road rage. Text above reads 'Summertime motorists should consider wearing gloves - Cancer Society'. Refers to the news that motorists are being urged to wear gloves to protect themselves against getting skin cancer. The Cancer Society said it was a myth that closed car windows protected against the sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation which could cause malignant melanoma and other skin cancers, The New Zealand Herald reported. The society said plain, clear vehicle glass blocked only 37 percent of UV-A radiation. The main risk came from long or frequent trips exposed to sun through side windows.
