How does a rack and pinion mechanism work?
A rack and pinion is a pair of gears which convert rotational motion into linear motion. The circular pinionengages teeth on a flat bar - the rack. Rotational motion applied to the pinion will cause the rack to move.See Here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rack_and_pinion
What is a rock and pinion black lash?
I think you mean RACK and pinion backlash. This is the amount of space between teeth in the gears of the rack and pinion which would cause a slight reverse motion before contact is re established to go forward.
Is it safe to drive with a bad rack and pinion?
No, you risk having a accident. The rack & pinion is what is used to steer the car.
What is the rack and pinion in rack and pinion steering?
A rack and pinion is a pair of gears which convert rotational motion into linear motion. The circular pinion engages teeth on a flat bar - the rack. Rotational motion applied to the pinion (by the steering wheel) will cause the rack to move to one side or the other, right up to the limit of its travel. The rack and pinion arrangement is commonly found in the steering mechanism of cars or other wheeled, steered vehicles. This arrangement provides a lesser mechanical advantage than other mechanisms such as recirculating ball, but much less backlash and greater feedback, or steering "feel". If you guessed that rack and pinion steering is used on race cars, you'd be correct. Use the links below to see some diagrams. A picture is definitely worth a thousand words in this case.

Can you drive a car with a bad rack and pinion?
The rack and pinion effects the steering of the vehicle directly. It is definitely not recommended to drive a car with a bad rack and pinion because of this.
