Sheila's Wheels launch Sheila's Heels - a driving shoe for ladies that goes from flat to heel at the push of a button...

Besides looking glam - we don't know about you but aesthetics always top our list when we're cruising the M25 - the design concept is aimed at those 11.5 million women drivers in the UK who put themselves and others at risk by wearing the wrong footwear when they're behind the wheel.

"Stilettos, sling-backs and strappy sandals aren't the sensible choice when it comes to controlling a car," says Jacky Brown from Sheila's Wheels. "Our Sheila Driving Heel design could provide safety-conscious female motorists with the ultimate driving shoe - allowing women to wear a safe flat shoe whilst driving, and a fashionable heel once they are out of the car."

Unlike your average pair of Jimmy Choos, Sheila's Heels won't get scuffed at the back - the heel tucks up and into the shoe - and won't get caught under the pedal, thanks to the flat shoe option.
