The risk of carbon monoxide poisoning can be reduced by never leaving a car running in a garage.  

Further explanation

Carbon monoxide or CO is colorless, odorless and tasteless gas produced by burning wood, gasoline, and other fuel. There are many ways to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning: Install carbon monoxide detector, maintaining and servicing appliances like boiler, cooker and heater system, well-ventilated room, open garage before starting your car and use the gas appliance as recommended.

Early symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are including irritated eyes, headache, nausea, weakness, and dizziness. The symptoms are similar to flu and food poisoning only does not cause a high temperature. Prolonged exposure to low concentrations or very short exposure to high concentrations can cause permanent brain damage, life-threatening cardiac complication, and death.  

When you think you have been exposed to low levels of carbon monoxide, seek medical advice from GP or go to your local A&E straight away if you think you have been exposed to high levels.
