The best way to help avoid accidents when you’re driving is to practice defensive driving techniques. Keep all of your attention on the road while at the wheel. Pay attention to those around you so you can predict their actions and be prepared for the unexpected.
If the exhaust is blue when your engine is running, it's burning oil. There are a number of possible causes, including a leak at the oil pan, the valve seals, or the head gasket.
You should always be prepared in case you run into problems while driving. Once you have the car under control, get it to the side of the road. Put on your hazard lights, and put out flares or traffic triangles. If it’s a blowout or flat tire, make sure you’re in a safe place before trying to change it.
Is your car backfiring? The air/fuel mixture may be too rich, or it could be a faulty oxygen sensor, catalytic converter, or false computer reads regarding the coolant temperature.
You should always be careful when you change lanes. Hitting someone is the most obvious danger, but there are others. Cutting in front of someone can cause them to overreact and lose control. Changing lanes if there’s something slippery on the road (like ice or oil) can cause you to lose control.
