Cars run on fuel. Fuel is "VOC". Cars emit VOC and oxides of nitrogen (NOx). Sunlight (purple to UV or more energetic) makes ozone from NOx and VOC. Combustion processes (cars and fossil fueled power plants) release water vapor and heat, and consume oxygen. Water vapor destroys ozone. Heat increases ozone's decay rate. Reduced levels of oxygen slow the ability to produce ozone. Cars tend to make ozone where we breathe, and have a fairly mild negative / depressive effect on "the ozone layer".

There are on average 5 cars stopped in line at a certain traffic light This is an example of what Explain In the ozone layer what molecules are represented by the cars in the analogy?

Analogy indecipherable, since the "cars stopped at a traffic light" are performing no actions. The analogy of cars controlled by a stoplight is often used to describe the impact of control devices on flows in a pipeline where the stoplight acts as a valve periodically releasing a fluid. The resultant packet of cars travels a turbulent slug until it spreads out into a more laminar flow allowing faster cars to pass slower cars. There is no equivalent to this mechanical phenomenon in ozone creation or destruction.


What type of air pollution that can corrode cars?

Ozone. It damages everything in the car that is made of plastic.
