Is it safe to leave my car running while I go into a store?

It depends on the type of vehicle you have. For most cars, it is generally safe to leave your engine running for short periods of time, as long as you are parked in a secure location and there is no risk of vandalism or theft. However, if your vehicle is an older model that does not have modern safety features such as anti-lock brakes, it may be best to turn off the engine before entering the store.
