There are very few places that still have a law against driving barefoot and those that do seldom enforce it. Originally some places put these laws in effect because the old mechanical and later the standard hydraulic brakes required a significant amount of pedal pressure to stop the vehicle quickly. It was felt that a shod foot would apply that pressure better than a bare foot. Today's vehicle have much more sophisticated power and power assisted breaking systems which require much less pedal pressure to stop the vehicle.

I think here in Florida its unlawful. Mainly because of the sand from the Beaches and the sand making your feet slip on the pedals.

No it is not, with the exception of cab drivers in certain areas that have actually set a dress code!!

Ummm...I wouldn't think so. It's probably up to you if you want to wear shoes or not I guess.
