one day it was pouring, and my shoes were filled with water as i was walking to my car, so i took them off and drove without them. i really loved the freedom of no shoes (not really a fan of anything on my feet).
so what do you think? is it ok, or do i have to wear shoes?

I was told that its important to wear sneakers and boots when driving a car. i think the point was to take you where you need to go. i also wear no shoes and if feels good as well. i like to keep extra shoes in the car. just in case, like slippers. LOL

I sometimes drive without any shoes when I know that I'm not going to get out of the car until I go back home. Like when I picked up my brother from school or dropping off the mail. I think it's fine to not wear shoes, but if you do plan on walking then just bring the pair and put them on when your about to get out.

I drive without shoes often but I do not reccommed it. I also like the comfort and freedom but I think that something could puncture your foot of your foot may slide from being wet or bare butif your car is clean and you don't have sweety feet then sure just don't let the cops catch you

yeah. of course.
i actually think its safer because you can physically feel the peddle, whereas if you were wearing a shoe with a thick sole you might not be able to tell how hard you are pushing the peddle.
i always take my shoes off to drive.

why touch the dirty pedals with your feet, just use your shoes or store an extra pair of shoes in your car

Its legal most places. There is the concern of an accident though. If you have to get out and don't have time (or think of it) to get your shoes, you may be walking through glass or other dangerous things barefoot.

Contrary to what many believe (including me, until I finished this research!), it is actually OK in most places and circumstances:

That said, I do wonder about the safety issues. I know that my gas pedal gets pretty hot sometimes -- do I REALLY want to burn my foot?
