Driving in High Heels?
1 Answers
Although there are no explicit regulations prohibiting the wearing of high heels, it is advisable not to drive in high heels for safety reasons. Below are relevant explanations: 1. The shoes should be lightweight. Heavy shoes, such as outdoor hiking boots, are not sufficiently light and flexible. In an emergency, they may hinder timely and precise reactions. 2. The shoes should fit the feet well. It is worth noting that sports shoes with air cushions or airbags in the soles are also unsuitable for driving, as they prevent the foot from fully sensing the pressure on the pedals. 3. Sufficient friction is necessary to ensure a good grip between the shoe soles and the pedals. Experiments have shown that flat shoes, canvas shoes, or sports shoes with heels less than 2 cm are more suitable for driving. When moving between the brake and accelerator pedals, even with the heel resting on the floor, the forefoot can still switch smoothly and respond quickly.
