Improper decoration in a car can cause traffic safety or the driver risks being fined.
Rearview mirror
One of the main reasons why you should not decorate your rearview mirror is because it obstructs your vision. In addition, if you hang heavy objects for a long time, the car's rearview mirror can break or shatter when the decoration hits it. This is especially dangerous for cars that often travel long distances.
Car glass area
The windshield is a very important and necessary part of a car. In addition to blocking wind, dust and rain, the windshield also increases the rigidity of the car's structure and protects the safety of the people in the car in all collision situations.
Decoration on car windows is considered unnecessary because it can cause obstacles when participating in traffic. In addition, decoration with hard objects or colored paint can also affect the car windows in the event of an accident.
Habits such as leaving personal items near the glass should also be abandoned, especially breakable items such as glass cups or vases... These items not only obstruct vision but also increase the risk of injury in the event of a collision, endangering the driver's life.
Control Panel
The vehicle dashboard allows displaying information about speed, engine rpm, fuel, coolant temperature and warning light system. This information and symbols help the driver understand the operating status of the vehicle, thereby driving the vehicle more safely.
However, many people today have the habit of placing decorations on the dashboard. Often these objects are not fixed and can fall or hit the driver when the car goes over difficult roads. Not to mention they can narrow the driver's vision in many cases, especially with cars with too many decorations.
License plate number
Although it seems that decorating a license plate is aesthetically pleasing, it can actually get you pulled over by the police. Some vehicle owners even use colored tape to cover the plate to change the printed numbers or wear down the letters on the plate.
In case the driver of a car or similar vehicle violates the regulations on driving a vehicle without a complete license plate or with an incorrect license plate position, with unclear numbers, with a bent, covered, or damaged license plate, he/she will be fined from VND 800,000 to VND 1,000,000 according to Section c, Clause 3, Article 16, Decree 100.
Car steering wheel
This is an important part that determines the safety of the vehicle during operation. Here, the driver should not decorate or apply other decals or patterns.
Drivers should also not hang feng shui strings, talismans or other decorative objects in front of them. Because they can get in the way and obstruct vision when cornering or making sharp turns, causing many dangers.
Dashboard
Many drivers with many years of experience in cars believe that you should not place objects or stick tape or stickers on the car dashboard.
Because if not firmly reinforced, when braking suddenly or in an accident, the above objects may fly out and hit the people sitting in the car, leading to the risk of injury or even worse.
In addition, sticking objects in this position will also affect the performance of the front airbags hidden under the car's dashboard.
Some people even place a screen in this position so they can watch entertainment programs while driving. However, this is extremely dangerous as it distracts the driver, affecting their ability to judge situations on the road.
Area in front of driver
Feng Shui decorative strings should not be hung in front of the driver because they can obstruct the driver’s vision. In many cases, this can even lead to unnecessary collisions during traffic.
