Can I place items in the driver's position?

It is not advisable to place items in the driver's position. Below are the hazards of placing items inside the vehicle: Obstructed view: Items can obstruct the driver's line of sight, impairing judgment. As the vehicle moves and experiences bumps, visibility from various angles can be affected, seriously threatening driving safety. During emergency braking while driving, decorations may slide due to inertia, posing a safety risk and potentially harming passengers in the vehicle. Secondary injuries from placed items: When airbags deploy, items placed inside the vehicle may interfere with the airbag's deployment and could cause secondary injuries to occupants.
I think placing items in the driver's area is quite unsafe. Once, I put a backpack at my feet, and during a turn, it slid under the accelerator pedal, nearly causing a loss of control. Fortunately, I braked in time to avoid an accident. When designing cars, the driver's area should be kept clear. Placing items can obstruct pedal operation, distract attention, or even cause injuries if they fly around during sudden braking. Legally, many places prohibit such behavior that affects driving. For the safety of yourself and others, I recommend storing items in the trunk or back seat, cultivating good driving habits to avoid any small items leading to significant risks. Remember, focus comes first when driving—don't let clutter cause trouble.
