High heels create a concentrated point of pressure on the wooden floor due to their narrow design and the weight of the wearer. This pressure can leave impressions or indentations in softer wood types, especially if the heel is sharp or the floor is not adequately finished. Additionally, the force exerted by the heel can compress the wood fibers, leading to temporary or permanent marks. Over time, repeated exposure can exacerbate the damage, making these impressions more pronounced.

Why is it that a girl with a high heel shoe can do more damage to a wooden floor that an elephant?

I am not quite sure whether this really is the case. But the idea is that the high heel shoe might possibly exert more pressure on the floor. Pressure is force divided by area, so if the heel has a sharp point, it may cause quite a bit of pressure.

Is the heel of the driver's foot at the bottom of the accelerator pedal?

If using the pedal, the heel will be on the floor at the base of the pedal. When driving, the foot has to be on the accelerator in order to move. When slowing or preparing to stop, the heel should be away from the pedal, poised to move to the brake. On cars with automatic transmissions, some drivers will leave their right foot above the accelerator while using the left foot to brake. There are both advantages and disadvantages to dual foot use, depending on the skill and experience of the driver. This is normally discouraged by driver education.
