Small amounts of carbon monoxide can cause drowsiness, headaches, muscular weakness, mental dullness, and nausea. 3. Too much carbon monoxide can cause death.
![1 Be alert for the danger of carbon monoxide in heavy traffic and in 1. Be alert for the danger of carbon monoxide in heavy traffic and in](https://slidetodoc.com/presentation_image/a48e7790bfb36832f8074086f15bbd44/image-50.jpg)
1. Be alert for the danger of carbon monoxide in heavy traffic and in enclosed areas. 2. Your heater or air conditioner vents might draw in exhaust fumes from the car ahead. 3.
