Car floor mats may seem like an inconspicuous thing, but they actually play a life-threatening role in driving.
The car mat is the closest to the accelerator, brake, clutch, etc. If the mat is not selected reasonably, it is likely to shift during use, or even the main brake, resulting in an accident. Not only that, some foam and plastic foot pads will also become combustion aids.
Foot pads can also cause major car accidents
There have been data showing that 38% of car accidents are caused by car floor mats every year, and the victims are as many as one million. The data from the National Highway Safety Administration (NHTSA) also shows that 17 collisions and 1,200 injuries were caused by acceleration caused by unintentional footpad sliding. It is conceivable that the harm caused by footpads cannot be ignored.
There are many similar cases. Many car owners said that they have encountered similar situations while driving. Fortunately, the impact was not serious and no major traffic accidents occurred. Otherwise, it's a real cup.
However, there are so many car mat products now that it really blinds your eyes! But you need to know that buying inappropriate, inferior or improperly used mats will directly or indirectly cause accidents.
It is dangerous to lay multiple floor mats
In order to facilitate cleaning, a large part of children's shoes will lay a layer of rubber, PVC and other easy-to-clean foot pads on the fabric foot pads. But I want to tell you that this kind of behavior is actually very dangerous!
According to online surveys, laying double-layered pads leads to a very high probability of pad displacement. The laying of double-layer foot pads makes the upper layer of foot pads unable to be fixed, which is prone to displacement events. Because the floor mats are very new, car owners are often more likely to be negligent, and the chance of accidents is greatly increased.
Deformed foot pads should be replaced in time
Foot pads have a useful life, which is ignored by many children's shoes. Even if you bought a regular foot pad, after a long time of use, there will be problems such as wrinkles, deformation and even damage. It also affects the safety of driving, so when it is used for a certain number of years, it is necessary to replace the new foot pads. Children's shoes must not be stingy with your purse! Otherwise, it will be too late to regret it when something goes wrong.
