'Spikes' Cause Wrecks Says Leather Group
NEW YORK — (U.P.) - Spike heels have tripped many a woman driver into an automobile accident.
The Leather Industries of America, quoting safety officials on the high-heeled hazard, warns that the best footwear for the lady motorist is a "driving" shoe—with a heel no higher than 1½ inches. The organization says high heels are hazardous because the shoe slips off the pedal, often with disastrous results when braking or using the clutch. Taking your shoes off may rest you on a long trip, but stockeding feet are just as hazardous as spike heels.
