The hazard of installing streamers on the front of a car is that it may cause traffic police to mistake the vehicle for a suspicious one and intercept it. The following is an introduction to car decoration: 1. Meaning: Car decoration refers to improving the aesthetics of the car's exterior and interior by adding some accessories, which are called decorative items. 2. Interior: Car interior decoration involves altering the appearance of the car's inner roof, floor, console, and other surfaces by installing, replacing fabrics, or placing ornaments. 3. Exterior: Car exterior decoration involves adding or modifying external parts such as front and rear bumpers, body kits, and spoilers without changing the car's original functions and structure.
I once saw a friend's car with hood streamers on the highway, and the streamer got blown into the engine compartment, nearly causing a fire. These things not only block the wind but also easily get tangled in the fan belt, posing significant safety hazards. Moreover, high-speed airflow makes the streamers shake violently, interfering with driving stability. If they come loose, they might fly onto the windshield of a following car and cause an accident. I absolutely refuse to install them now—I'd rather keep my car clean and safe.
I've noticed many people like to hang decorative ribbons on their car hoods, but the risks are significant. The ribbons can be blown by the wind into the radiator or air vents, blocking them and affecting the cooling system. This increases the likelihood of engine overheating. Not to mention, plastic ribbons are not durable and can fall off, becoming roadside litter that pollutes the environment. Birds or other small animals may mistakenly eat them, leading to serious consequences.
I used to install decorative ribbons on the car hood to save money, but later found they were difficult to clean when dust stuck to them and they faded. More importantly, they occasionally obstructed the front view during turns, increasing risks. A police friend mentioned that such decorations might involve illegal modifications and could lead to fines. It's better to remove them to ensure smooth driving.
