There are no state restrictions for driving barefoot. However, most states encourage drivers to make wise choices regarding their footwear. Proper footwear keeps everyone safe on the road.
Choosing footwear that won’t be a distraction while you're driving is essential. Drivers should avoid loose-fitting shoes or ones that get in the way. If shoes that match your outfit aren’t conducive to driving, going barefoot may be your best option. Place your shoes in the backseat or the passenger-side floorboard to prevent them from sliding around at your feet.
