Is it safe to drive a vehicle that has antifreeze mixing with oil?
NO NO NO you can i guess but it will ruin your engine. You either have a cracked block or blown head gasket i would guess. Moisture in the engine will destroy it.

Can I drive car through car wash with cracked windshield?
Technically, you don't "drive" through a car was, the car is in neutral and you are moved through. But, as for your question, if the windshield is cracked enough for water to get through, I wouldn't do it.
How do you know if your car has a cracked block?
A good clue would be water in the oil. That said, just because you do not have water in the oil, doesn't mean the block is not cracked. Have a good mechanic check the car.
Your truck does not overheat but can I still have a cracked block?
Yes you can. A cracked block does not necessarily mean the car will overheat. If a block is cracked at a coolant jacket then coolant will leak out and the car will overheat if the leak is bad enough. If the leak is not very major or if the crack is at a point that does not have a coolant jacket then it will not overheat. A cracked block could leak oil, compressed air/fuel, coolant, or nothing at all and still be cracked. -R. Mesyef
