you are driving your van while low on oil, hence the oil warning light illuminated and with out adequate charge from the alternator all the while high beaming on-coming traffic and confusing them with your four way hazards on.
Don't know what the bottom warning light is so no guess there.
did I win?

It is out of focus, looks like some movement when pressing the shutter (shutter remote or tripod helps with these low light photos), a bit underexposed, and while centered in the frame it is a bit off angle.
What do I win?
