Everyone has heard the phrase “diamonds are a girl’s best friend”. Maybe so, but we think that car window tints are the female driver’s new best friends.
Window tints offer many benefits regardless of gender. However, they can help female drivers in particular with various problems they may face out on the road more often.
Here are some of the benefits female drivers can gain by getting their car windows tinted.
Safety, Security, and Privacy
Women are often vulnerable to various crimes, especially late at night. Not only that, but they tend to attract more perpetrators of crimes.
When your windows are tinted, then these people can’t see into your vehicle as well, increasing your security and privacy.
Even if you aren’t in the car, tinting prevents would-be thieves from seeing any valuables locked inside. If your car is among other cars, there’s little chance they’ll pick yours.
Protection For Children From the Sun
The safety of your children is paramount, especially when you’re out driving. Children’s skin is often more sensitive to the sun’s harsh UV rays. Consequently, if you’re in the car for long periods on a sunny day, your child may get a rash or sunburn.
But of course, you can’t apply sunscreen to your child’s skin every time you get in the car, nor can you at regular intervals while driving.
Window tints block the sun's rays, reducing your child’s exposure to the sun. They’ll be much safer from sunburn.
Maintaining Health and Youth
The sun affects your skin as well. Prolonged exposure to the sun’s rays can lead to wrinkles and lines over time. If exposed to the sun excessively, there’s even the risk of skin cancer.
But sunlight is unavoidable if you drive often. Imagine if you have a long commute, or your commute is straight through a traffic jam everyday. Think about how much sun you’re getting.
Window tints can keep up to 99% of UV rays out, much more effective (and convenient) than applying sunscreen before every drive.
Comfort
Still on the topic of the sun, it can often make driving uncomfortable. When you first get in on a hot day, the steering wheel may burn your hands if you aren’t careful. Other areas, such as your radio controls and center console could also hurt to touch.
And if your climate control ever fails, then driving in the summer won’t be fun.
Window tints can make those drives more comfortable.
Road Safety
Statistics have shown that female drivers tend to be involved in more crashes, despite being behind the wheel less than men on average.
There could be many reasons behind this, but the sun shining in your face certainly doesn’t help. With window tints, you can drive confidently, knowing the sun won’t be blinding you as you navigate down the road.
Automobile Aesthetics
Lastly, tinting your windows can make your car look more classy, cool, and sophisticated. It also conveys that you’re the kind of driver that cares about their car — which could subtly tell other drivers that you’re a safer motorist.
