Zusammenfassung:A method and apparatus for reducing undesirable air flow in a passenger compartment of a forward moving vehicle taps into an external air stream source to provide a counteractive air flow supply. The counteractive air flow supply is used to introduce at least one generally forward to rearward directed counteractive flow of air into the passenger compartment at a generally laterally central portion of the vehicle in an amount and at a velocity sufficient to counteract at least a portion of a rearward to forward flow of air in the passenger compartment to provide a forward to rearward directed flow of air through a generally laterally central portion of the passenger compartment at a head level of at least one front seat passenger.
