I can’t believe I just worked out what ‘weird slits’ in my car’s dashboard are actually – they’ll save me SO much money
MOTORISTS have figured out what a weird place on the car dashboard is for and it will leave you surprised.
Drivers will never lose their parking ticket again now that it has been revealed what the space next to the gear stick is for.
IhateTikTokcringie has revealed that the dashboard of a Ford Fiesta has a little pocket for you to place your parking ticket in.
The motorist describes the tip as a “Fiesta Car Hack” and says they “can’t believe they just worked this out”.
Drivers are known to place parking stubs down the front of their dashboard, but this is a difficult place to reach for the ticket in a moment of need.
The 30-second video shows a driver placing the ticket snugly into the dashboard slit where it sits in view and easy reach of the driver.
The slit sits just below the air conditioning controls on the car dashboard and above the storage space in front of the gear stick.
Then, when the driver reaches the ticket machine upon leaving, they can easily reach for the ticket and place it into the machine.
Now, drivers will never lose their parking ticket again as there is an easy-to-reach space for the stub to live.
Commenters were astounded at the driving hack.
“No way this is actually craaaaaazy never know that. I neva knew dat I never knew dat,” one commenter said.
“well….. I never,” said another.
Half of Britain’s drivers are also confused about other buttons on the dashboard.
Orange or yellow lights are letting you know that your vehicle needs to be repaired or serviced soon.
But, if a red light appears – this usually means that you should take action immediately.
It is important to understand all the parts of your car dashboard so that you can drive safely on the road.
