Car exhaust is only truly damaging in super high concentrations. Fuel today is much cleaner than it was 20 years ago (with the exception of diesel). The main byproduct of the fuel is virtually harmless CO2. But if you run a car in an enclosed room, it will produce carbon monoxide, which will quickly kill you in high quantities. So unless you operate your car inside the house or you decide to put your mouth over the tailpipe, car exhaust is considerably much less harmful than cigarette smoke.
Not if you were to ask any of the silly fools who think car exhaust is a contributing factor to this global warming that they don't realize is a very natural process that has happened countless thousands of times in the billions of years that our wonderful little planet has experienced weather patterns of any sort.
Far be it for me to open another can of worms, but for every single moron who truly believes that global warming is caused by humans, I remind you that when Earth Day was founded in the early 1970's it was founded primarily to inform about the evils of global cooling that would supposedly herald a second ice age. Wonder whatever happened to that?
And now, insanities that only ABF could believe!
