For underexposed areas duplicate the layer (ctrl J), change the new layer blend to screen and adjust the opacity until you get something you like.
For overexposed areas duplicate the layer (ctrl J), change the new layer blend to darken and adjust the opacity until you get something you like.
If you're talking about the light spots then you could use the clone/patch tool.
If you just want to 'tone' it down some you could try dodging/burning the areas by using a new layer on soft light blend by painting white/black at around 30%.

An alternative would be to enter quick mask mode ("q") and carefully paint over the overxposed area. Use a large brush at low opacity, so the edge of the mask is smoothly feathered. Try using about 20% opacity and 175px brush (0 hardness).
Exit quick mask mode, invert the selection (select/inverse) and then adjust the brightness of the overexposed area using curves. Here's my 2-minute take:
Note that I also reduced the red saturation in the non-overexposed areas by re-inverting the selection and adjusting hue/sat and curves a bit.

I wouldn't remove the reflections, they don't detract IMO.

When I first saw the shot I thought you wanted to work on the underexposed areas as on my monitor the left side blends into the background a lot, especially the windscreen area. If it wasnt for the reflections on the windscreen I wouldnt know there was one past the frame on the right. |
