Answer:

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the carbon monoxide is a cololess and odorless gas that can kill us. It can be found anywhere and anytime we burn fuel, cars, trucks, small engines, lanterns, grills, stoves, and more. The main characteristic that makes CO really dangerous is that it's untraceable.

In the case of cars and engine-vehicles, there are several measures we can take to avoid CO poisoning:

We should check the exhaust system periodically with professional help, to ensure that the vehicle is not releasing more CO than it should.
Never run the engine-vehicles inside the garage, this will concentrate the CO gas and it will make you inhale big amounts of it.
If we have a vehicle with tailgate, and you are gonna open it, make sure you also open the windows, because if you don't all CO gas will enter through the tailgate and you will inhale too much gas.
