My local medium sized Tesco has a decent sized car park. And not

such it is popular with van drivers to have their lunch in - a
meal deal from the store, etc. And they near all have their
engines running. Perhaps understandable if cold for the heater.
But this happens at all times of the year.

AC is std on most vans now ,if it is there people will use it .

Some if they are off a building site or a repairman who is attending
several calls may be taking the opportunity to top up the batteries
of Cordless tools ,most of the well known tool makes like Makita
make chargers that work off the vehicle accessory socket.

Sorry, I simply don't believe every van running its engine when parked
up like this has a good reason to do so.

you could always tap on the window and ask.

I have done this. All I got was a strange look. Of course the driver could
have been Eastern European and didn't understand what I was asking.
