Why is my car smoking?

Question

My 96 Camry is smoking a bit. It's white smoke. I accidentally hit a post that kinda jammed my hood back and knocked my lights out of their place, so right now I can't get under the hood. But through the crack it seems like the smoke is coming from the right side of under the hood. Car hasn't over heated and the car doesn't seem to "bog down" when I drive. Any advice or help? Plz

don't drive it till you can look under the hood for damage

Answer 2

you could've cracked your radiator and the coolant could be burning off of the block causing the white smoke. You car wont necessarily be overheating until it starts to run low on coolant. open that hood and check it out ASAP.

Answer 3

Don't hit posts.
