Yes, a 2012 study by MIT found that airborne pollution from cars, trucks, planes and power plants caused 13,000 premature deaths in the UK during 2005. This was more than four times the number of Britons killed in road accidents (3000).

Car and truck exhausts were the single greatest contributor to early deaths.
