It's not toxic, you just can't breathe it- so it would have to completely replace all (or at least most) of the air in your car.. David(DG) I wouldn’t worry too much about asphyxiation.

They also run air tools off of it. I don't know if there is an advantage to one or the other. Our lift maintenace department uses Nitrogen tanks for the same purpose.

I now have a use for my beer keg CO2 bottle but don't forget that CO2 will asphysicate. If it leaks into a closed vehicle (unlikely) you could die very quickly. A good cap on the outlet may be safer.
