Why Buy a Foot and Two Inches of Red Cloth When Purchasing a New Car?

[Raquel]

Hanging red cloth strips on a car not only symbolizes joy and auspiciousness due to the color red but also represents the meaning of "good luck (red) coming your way." Below are related introductions: Safety Impact: Tying red cloth on the rearview mirror is the most common practice for new cars, but it is also the most dangerous. When the vehicle starts moving, the red cloth strips flutter with the wind, which can easily block the rearview mirror, severely affecting the driver's ability to observe the traffic behind them. A slight oversight could lead to a major accident. Impact on Car Paint: If the red cloth strips contain sand or other impurities, prolonged flapping against the car paint or rearview mirror glass can easily cause damage. Over time, most red cloth strips will also fade and deteriorate, making subsequent cleanup very troublesome.
