When cars are been driven by a driver, they emit pollutants from the burning of the Gasoline used in the car, during this process, there is a release of fumes into the atmosphere whenever gasoline is pumped into the fuel tanks

.

There is the production of different harmful amount of gases when ever individual go to work with thier personal car such as nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, even nitrogen oxides. All these are very dangerous and are harmful for individual health
