Masks do have other benefits though, firstly they keep your face warm and secondly, they reduce they reduce the amount of traffic fumes making it into the lungs.

Generally speaking, masks can reduce certain-sized particulate matter, but have no effect on fumes until you get a serious one like a PAPR w/ chem cartridge, gas mask, SCBA, etc. Even an N-95 would not stop fumes.
