I drive barefoot everywhere I go never have had a problem. That being said my left foot is either on the dead pedal or the clutch.

I didn't think that was legal.

I thought it was illegal also. Much to my surprise Wikipedia/Barefoot/way down the page/ clearly suggests otherwise.

Some people speculate that driving barefoot increases the risk of an accident if bare feet slip off the pedals.[111] It is legal throughout the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom to drive barefoot.[111][112][113] However, in some US jurisdictions, police officers may ticket a driver for other things if the fact that they were driving barefoot or in flip-flops/high heeled shoes hindered their driving and/or resulted in an accident.[114]

It must be true. It's on the internet.

Another urban myth along with having your interior lights on while driving at night.
