The exhaust from your car is burnt fuel, which needs to be removed from the engine so that there is space for new fuel. If you block the exhaust, the burnt fuel cannot leave, and when the engine tries to bring in new fuel, the space is already occupied by burnt fuel. Cars can’t run on this, so the engine stops running.
