Friction slows down a car. As such, in order to maintain the velocity of the car, energy, i.e. gasoline, is required due to friction.
If there were no friction, an impossible state, the car would require no energy to maintain its velocity once it had achieved the desired velocity.

Why is friction harmful while driving a car in the winter?
Friction can be harmful or helpful when driving, no matter what time of year. For instance it is helpful when breaking and it is harmful between bearing surfaces. The loss of friction between the tyres and the road during winter can be disastrous.
What are the factors that can affect the friction of a car while driving?
The factors that can affect the friction of a car while driving include the type and condition of the tires, the road surface, the weight of the car, and the speed at which the car is traveling.
How is it that Without friction between the road and the tires of a car it would be like driving on which surface?
Without friction, driving a car would be like driving on a very slippery surface, such as ice. The lack of friction would make it difficult to accelerate, brake, or steer the vehicle effectively, leading to a loss of control and unsafe driving conditions.
Is friction is a foe?
Friction can be a friend when walking and when driving a car. For example, walking or driving on ice can be very risky due to the lack of friction. Friction can be a foe when it causes more work to have to be done or excess heating. Friction is responsible for our getting blisters on our hands or feet.
Example of where you need friction?
When driving a car, friction between the tires and the road is crucial for traction and control. Without friction, the tires would not be able to grip the road surface effectively, leading to skidding and loss of control.

What is the most significant force of friction?
a car driving on the road
What forces are there on a car?
gravity, friction, driving force and wind resistance..

What are sources of friction?
Driving a car down the street is a source of friction. Rolling a bowling ball down the lane is also an example of friction.
Why can driving a car be harmful to the atmosphere?
because of monkey logs
What is harmful friction to a car?
metal to metal.... worn out brakes, bad oil pressure
What is one harmful way friction affect a car?
Cars don't get better gas or mileage.
What is a low mu surface?
This is a low coefficient of friction like driving on ice with a car versus driving on dry asphalt.
Why does your car slow down while driving and giving it gas to the floor?
Because of friction
