Answers:
Is it true that in 2007, people still dont believe in wearing seatbelts?
Although the car is enclosed, there is still air circulation through the car. Just sitting still outside in your car will give ya the same effect. You just can't sit for long periods of time in a room where carbon monoxide can build up.You won't get CO poisoning w/o being exposed to CO. A car with a properly functioning exhaust system and no leaks into the passenger compartment (rusty floor boards, trunk pan, bad door/window seals) should be safe in any open environment whether moving or parked. In an enclosed environment where the exhaust can't move away from the car (like a garage) the positive ventilation system will draw the CO into the car and thus, present a hazard. HTH.

Outside air is abundant, in a closed garage in a car with the engine running or even in the house, the air in the garage gets replaced with Carbon monoxide, and the car eventually draws that air inside, and most HVAC systems draw their fresh air return in the garage!Carbon monoxide is emitted from the tail pipe (exhaust system) of your car. While driving the car is constantly moving away from the exhaust. Most newer cars are sufficiently air tight to prevent exhaust gases from entering the car while sitting still. Problems can arise with older cars that may have holes in the exhaust system and body panels of the car. This can allow exhaust gases to enter into the car, especially while sitting still.

If you keep your car in a garage at home, you should never leave the engine running idle in an enclosed space. This can cause a build up of carbon monoxide fumes in the garage area, and can also cause CO pollution to seep in to the house, which poses a risk to everyone in the home.
If you could choose a speed limit for driving cars, what would it be?
You should bear in mind that vehicles tend to give off more carbon monoxide emission during the colder months because more fuel is required in order to start and run the engine during cold weather.
You are advised to ensure that you regularly have your vehicle checked for excessive CO emissions during the winter months, as this could help to protect you and others.

The risks of death are further increased from vehicle CO poisoning, as you could quite easily crash your vehicle if you start to become drowsy or feel unwell from the poisoning when you are driving.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) advocates the use of carbon monoxide monitors, but warns to not let these monitors lull you into a false sense of security. It is more important to make sure all appliances working properly.
Also, there has been a number of recalls in recent years on these monitors, and they are generally not regarded as reliable as todays smoke detectors. Make sure you do some research on making sure you get an effective product. Install them near sleeping areas, where monitoring the level of carbon monoxide is crucial, and make sure you check the batteries at least twice a year.
