Now that the weather is warm again, I'm back to wearing my flip-flops. I have two to three pairs that I absolutely love...they're colorful and sparkly! I definitely adore the 'open air, breezy' feel on my toes-- especially after nearly six months of wearing closed shoes and boots!

But... (there always seems to be a but, doesn't there?), flip flops can be DANGEROUS, specifically when driving. There are some other issues related to your general health, but today's tip focuses strictly on driving hazards of wearing flip flops.

In fact, did you know that driving in flip flops is even more dangerous than doing so in high heels? Flip flops are not sturdy, and they can slip off becoming lodged under the accelerator or brake pedal. According to recent statistics:

* 1 in 9 drivers admits their flip flop has gotten stuck under a pedal while driving

* The front or sides of the flip-flop can catch underneath the brake pedal as you move your foot, preventing you from applying the brake effectively, thus slowing your breaking time

* Flip-flops tend to have very minimal tread on the sole and this means less grip on the pedals especially if they are wet

* They come off too easily, causing a distraction while you're attempting to put them back on.

* Flip flops have been the cause of nearly 1.4 million car accidents in the United States

This information has convinced me to never wear flip flops when driving. But I'm not ready to give up my flip flops. So what I do is I continue to wear my flip flops, but I keep an extra pair of socks and sneakers in the car when I do and wear those whenever I'm at the wheel. This way, I'm keeping myself and others safe while I'm driving, and I can switch back into my flip flops when I get to my destination if I so choose.
