Here's an interesting read sent to me by the author, Brian Turner....
Whenever you're behind the wheel, you're probably thinking about how to drive safely so that you don't hurt yourself or your passengers in an avoidable accident. But the greatest danger on the road isn't from other cars it's from toxic chemicals that are found in nearly all automobiles.

Windshield Dust
Windshield dust poses serious health risks to people who ride in automobiles. Dust on windshields contains PVCs fire-retardant chemicals that are found on clothing items and other commonly used items. PVCs are linked to birth defects and learning impairments in children, so it's especially important for pregnant mothers to avoid exposure to them. If you turn on your air conditioning system while dust is on your windshield, the dust will get sucked back into the car and you may breathe it in. Clean your windshield regularly and roll windows down when first starting the car instead of turning on the air conditioner to reduce your risk of exposure to PVCs.
Asbestos in Brake Pads
Car Manufacturers are doing a much better job building vehicles today. Although, if you own an older car and change your brake pads yourself, you should be aware that you may be exposing yourself to mesothelioma, a rare and fatal form of cancer, or other lung problems. Many brake pads contain asbestos particles. Asbestos have been linked to mesothelioma, so you need to limit your exposure to these particles. Professional mechanics wear masks while changing brake pads and other parts like clutch plates, linings, etc. and take other precautions against exposure to asbestos. Consider letting your mechanic change your brake pads or wearing protective gloves and a mask while changing them.

Coatings of Interior Knobs
Many interior knobs are coated with either chlorine or bromine. Both of these chemicals are hazardous to your health. These chemicals can lead to thyroid problems, learning impairments and decreased fertility. Always wash your hands after coming in from the car, and never let your children put their fingers in their mouths while in the car. If you have children younger than five years of age, find out what their car seats are made of; bromine and chlorine are often used to make car seats, and it's difficult to stop young children from putting their hands in their mouth. Get environmentally friendly car seats that don't contain bromine or chloride to avoid exposing infants to these toxins.
