Thread: Do you drive with bare feet?

G'day Folks

I always wear shoes, ever since I had to be cut from a Van after a MVA with a tree,(blown steer tyre) only thing that saved my feet was the army AB's that I was wearing, but did my knees, by planting them in the steel dash panel, that was way back in 73.

cheers

The only time I wear shoes is when i'm driving to work other wise to uncomfortable.

Cheers Glenn

I finally explained that it was meant to be shoes, secured to your feet as opposed to thongs which can slip off.
Barefeet is safer, if you have thongs kick them off.
In some cars my RM Williams foul the underside of the dash so I have to take them off too.

WHAT ! ! You drive with no strides on as well?

would have to agree that bear feet is safer than thongs, but you have to be a county bumkin to do it. SLACKERS

Get some shoes you cheap asses

This thread is turning into AULRO naturists

When I drive to work I put my shoes on when I get there if I'm wearing fancy shoes. If they are just runners then maybe I'll put them on at home.

No shoes , no shirt ,no jocks - go tribal , you'll love it.

Ok, I've resisted so far, but I have to ask, those that say you drive with shoes because it's safer in a crash, do you drive with a helmet as well?

I drive however I feel most comfortable, so long as i'm able to concentrate on the road, I'm fine. If that means no shoes cause my feet are hot and sweaty, I'm fine with it (even if the family aren't cause the smell wafts thru the car). I always have something close by to put on though.


Shoes or not, be comfortable.
