ABSTRACT:
The floor mat comprises a main portion for lying flat on an automobile floor and an upwardly inclined portion for lying on an inclined surface within the automobile, such as behind the pedals. The main portion includes a centrally disposed downwardly recessed area forming a pan having a floor and surrounding sides for catching fluid. A plurality of ridges, having a triangular cross-section, rise vertically from the floor of the pan for holding pants and the like above fluids caught in the pan. The forwardly extending portion includes ribs which extend in the longitudinal direction of the mat for channeling fluids backward into the pan. Additional ribs are formed on the forward portion which are inclined downwardly and inwardly for channeling fluid away from the edges of the mat toward the center of the mat.
