Default Does anyone here drive without their shoes?

So i tried driving with shoes on and i'm constantly fumbling around and not shifting and gasing fast enough cause of my size 12 shoes. Not a whole lot of space down there. So what i do is put my work shoes in the trunk and wear sandals most of the time. I have to leave an extra 5 mins for work cause i gotta put them on. So is it just me? Cause some people think it's weird. Than again, they got big SUVs.

I drive without shoes all the time!
Or atleast whenever I'm wearing sandals. The pedals leave your feet raw the first few times but afterwards you get used to it. Feels good on cool pedals during the summer!

I have done it alot. Sometimes the shoes I wear will somehow slip on the pedals so I take them off. Feels great.

What I find really weird is that it takes you 5 minutes to put shoes on. Are you using your teeth?

Being in Florida makes it easy for me becase all I wear are sandals. I can't drive with shoes on, well I can but it's so much more comfortable. So get in the car slip out of the sandals and onward and upward...or at least forward.

I have a 12-13 size foot (depends on the shoe)... if I wear racing shoes, and I can this car like butter. If you all don't like the pedal feel while driving barefoot, just put up a pair of racing shoes.
