1/. Rubber mat fitted to drivers side floor is insecure and has slid forward so it is likely to interfere with accelerator pedal depression.Suggest secure or remove for safety.

2/. Front brake discs worn and have 'lipped' outer edge. Suggest measure thickness and replace if not within manufacturers specifications.

3/. Both front tyres wearing outer edge so tread depth has reduced considerably. Although still 'road legal', tread differential across the breadth of the tyre may affect vehicle stability in conditions of heavy rain.
