You can continue driving if the engine warning light is on without obvious malfunctions. Here are the details: 1. No obvious malfunctions. If the engine warning light is on but you're far from a repair shop and don't have time, as long as there are no obvious engine issues, you can address it later. Maintain low speed while driving and monitor the oil pressure gauge and coolant warning light. 2. Obvious malfunctions. If you notice significant engine problems such as severe abnormal noises, intense shaking, or smoke from the exhaust pipe, you should not continue driving. It's best to contact a nearby repair shop or 4S store for assistance.
