If a ball joint breaks on a car while it is turning into a parking space can it throw the car out of control and/or cause one or more brakes to lock up? Even if the tire does not fall off ? Will greasy or oily substance be thrown over the front of the car and on the tire opposite the one with the broken ball joint?

Meaning, the stop and go lights that we use everytime we go driving, the ammount of lanes, street signs, everything. Just how innovative it is and efficient at operating. For example, India's is pretty poor, many places lack lights so it is just a free for all, like a 4-way stop sign intersection, minus the stop signs. You can imagine how chaotic, just whoever goes first goes. Highly inefficient.
Some would say L.A. is awful, etc. But I am curious about Germany, etc, what it's like there. How would you judge your state's efficiency? Do you have nifty traffic lights, efficient traffic flow, etc.
-And how can we improve our transportation system for cars?

My car has a gorgeous dark gray metallic paint job, but the dark paint is a freaking dust magnet. Any tips on minimizing dust, besides brushes and car covers? It gets clayed and waxed every six months. Thanks!

My alternator is shot and the garage is ten miles away. Temps are in the single digits here. The car needs about twenty minutes warm-up time. Once I get it started can I run the heater if the battery is connected to the charger and not lose battery power?
