4 types of shoes you shouldn ’ t wear while driving

Did you know that your choice of footwear can affect your safety behind the wheel ? Here ’ s an overview of four types of shoes you shouldn ’ t wear while driving .

Wedges have thick soles that can prevent you from accurately feeling the gas and brake pedals . This can cause you to misjudge how much pressure you ’ re applying .
Stilettos have sharply pointed heels that can get caught in the floor mat . The heels can also interfere with your ability to pivot your foot from the accelerator to the brake pedal .
Flip flops don ’ t secure to your heel , which can interfere with braking and accelerating . They can also easily slip off and become stuck under a pedal .
Large boots restrict your ankle movement and can make it difficult to use the gas and brake pedals . Knee-high boots can also catch against the seat , affecting your reaction time .
A comfortable pair of flat walking shoes with thin , grippy soles offer the safest driving experience . n
