High heels for women drivers
A shoe that changes from stilettos into flats at the push of a button has been created for women drivers.
The high heels can be concealed inside the shoe while the wearer is behind the wheel and then extended for a more glamorous look.
The 'driving heels' design was commissioned by insurance firm Sheilas' Wheels following a poll of 754 women that showed four in five wore the wrong shoes for driving.
One in 10 admitted they had had an accident or near-miss because their shoes slipped off or got stuck between or under the pedals.
Around a third had worn flip-flops and 18% had worn no shoes while driving.
Sheilas' Wheels spokeswoman Jacky Brown said: "Stilettos, sling-backs and strappy sandals are not the sensible choice when it comes to controlling a car."
