The engine causes the tires of the vehicle to turn. The tires are made of rubber in order to maximize the friction (traction) between the tires and the concrete. It is the tires and the force of friction which causes a vehicle to move forward (or backward, for that matter).
The road through the tires of the car. It is caused by the new bias of the tires allowing the car to proceed only in the assigned direction.
There are more than two forces acting on a moving car. The force of gravity keeps the car on the ground, and the normal force from the ground keeps the car from falling to the center of the earth. When the engine is running, it creates a torque which is transferred to the car's tires. Due to small and large cracks and crevices in the road and tires the two surfaces keep getting stuck together. The force must go somewhere, so the car is now applying a force on the road in the direction the wheels are rotating. Newton's 3rd law states that, "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction," therefore the road also applies a force to the car. This force is called a frictional force. It is static friction if the car is moving, and the tires are not sliding; it is kinetic friction if the car is moving, but the tires are sliding. This frictional force is what propels the car and is greater as static friction. The last force acting on a moving car is the drag force or air resistance and it is caused by particles of air running into the car, slowing it down.
Yes, frictional forces such as air, tires against the ground, gravity pulling the car down, force of engine moving car forward. The positive force of the engine turning the drive train and the wheels is equaled by the frictional forces; so overall forces balance out.
while taking turn on the road,a car moves in a circular path to keep the car moving along the circular path, centripetal force is required. in the absence of this force, the car will skid off the road to the outer size of the road and may possibly turn turtle due to inertia .the force of friction between the tires and roads provides the necessary centripetal force and keeps the car moving on the curved path.

the screeching sound you hear is simply friction. the tires stopped turning, but the car is still moving. the tires are being drug on the pavement
speed! a moving car is having a force greater than the friction of the tires/air (and gravity on a steep upward hill) applied to it, and is moving forward. The force can come from the engine, or external forces.

To curve in a circle, the car's tires push outside against the road; the road pushes inward against the car's tires.
If you apply the brakes it can stop it moving.

It is because the place through which the bus or truck is moving has a large surface area , as the tires become wider it will be easy to drive.
Gravity and no force being applied to the vehicle. Traction has nothing to do with it. It boils down to Newtons first law which states, "Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it".
Yes, frictional forces such as air, tires against the ground, gravity pulling the car down, force of engine moving car forward. The positive force of the engine turning the drive train and the wheels is equaled by the frictional forces; so overall forces balance out.
Friction in cars are produced by the tires and the clutch. The friction caused by the tires allow the vehicle to stay on the road, while the friction produced by the clutch makes it possible for the car to get moving. While gravity, for example supplies the force that pulls the vehicle down the hill.
